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

backgroundGallbladder carcinoma (GBC) remains a highly lethal disease worldwide. MiR-552 family members promote the malignant progression of a variety of digestive system tumors, but the role of miR-552-3p in GBC has not been elucidated. miR-552-3p was predicted to target the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) of the mRNA for the tumor suppressor gene "repulsive guidance molecule BMP co-receptor a" (

methods

resultsMiR-552-3p was abnormally highly expressed in GBC tissues and cancer stem cells. Interference with miR-552-3p in SGC-996 and GBC-SD cells significantly inhibited GBC stem cell expansion. Reciprocally, miR-552-3p promoted GBC cell proliferation, migration and invasion both

conclusionsMiR-552-3p promotes the malignant progression of GBC by inhibiting the mRNA of the tumor suppressor gene
