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

This study aimed to explore the role of micorRNA-2053 in esophageal cancer development. The expression level of miR-2053 in esophageal cancer cell lines was detected. After cell transfection, the effects of miR-2053 overexpression on proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of esophageal cancer cells were determined. Moreover, the potential molecular mechanism was explored by measuring the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and apoptosis-related proteins. Luciferase reporter assay was conducted to investigate the target gene of miR-2053. The protein expressions of PI3K/AKT pathway associated factors were detected after overexpression of miR-2053 or administration with the pathway inhibitor LY294002. The miR-2053 was downregulated in esophageal cancer cell lines. Overexpression of miR-2053 inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion while promoted apoptosis. Molecular mechanism elucidated that miR-2053 could reduce EMT and elevate the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins. Further study found that overexpressed miR-2053 could negatively regulate KIF3C and involve in PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Our study demonstrated the downregulation of miR-2053 in esophageal cancer. Downregulation of miR-2053 involved in the proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of esophageal cancer cells through upregulating KIF3C expression and activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. miR-2053 may have the potential in clinical treatment of esophageal cancer.
