1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most common malignant gynecological tumors. Dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) is frequently identified in human tumors, playing key regulatory roles in tumor growth and metastasis. The present study aimed to explore the functions and potential mechanisms of miR-15a-5p in EC progression. RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression levels of miR-15a-5p and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) mRNA. Western blot analysis was performed to examine the expression of related proteins. Functional assays, including proliferation and Transwell assays were performed to determine the roles of miR-15a-5p in EC progression. TargetScan and luciferase reporter assays were used to explore the potential target genes of miR-15a-5p. The results revealed that miR-15a-5p was underexpressed in EC tissue samples in comparison with that in matched normal tissue samples. The expression level of miR-15a-5p was associated with the clinicopathologic characteristics of EC patients. Notably, both
