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

Thyroid cancer (TC) is the most common endocrine malignant disease with a rising morbidity year by year. Accumulating studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a regulatory role in the progression of various tumors, but the molecular regulatory mechanism of miR-196a-2 in TC is still unknown. qRT-PCR was employed to measure the expression of miR-196a-2 and NRXN1 mRNA in TC cells, while western blot was used to detect the protein expression of NRXN1. CCK-8, colony formation and flow cytometry assays were used to measure cell proliferation and apoptosis of TC cells. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was used to predict and verify the targeted binding relationship between miR-196a-2 and NRXN1. Our study results manifested that miR-196a-2 was dramatically overexpressed in cells of TC, while NRXN1 was lowly expressed. miR-196a-2 could promote cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis of TC. Additionally, miR-196a-2 could also target and inhibit the expression of NRXN1. Silencing NRXN1 could reverse the inhibitory effect of miR-196a-2 downregulation on cell proliferation of TC, as well as the promoting effect on cell apoptosis. In a conclusion, we found that miR-196a-2 could promote cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis of TC by targeting NRXN1. Therefore, miR-196a-2/NRXN1 is potential to be a molecular therapeutic target for TC.
