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

Previously our results showed miR-222-3p was significantly downregulated in retinoic acid-induced neural tube defect (NTD) mouse model through transcriptome. Down-regulation of miR-222-3p may be a causative biomarker in NTDs. In this study, RNA was extracted from mouse embryos at E8.5, E9.5 and E10.5, and the expression level of miR-222-3p was measured by quantitative real-time PCR analysis. The preliminary mechanism of miR-222-3p in NTDs involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration was investigated in mouse HT-22 cell line. The expression of miR-222-3p was significantly decreased at E8.5, E9.5 and E10.5 developed in mouse embryos which were consistent with our transcriptome sequencing. Suppression of miR-222-3p in HT-22 cells resulted in the inhibition of cell proliferation and migration, cell cycle and apoptosis. Moreover, DNA damage transcript 4 (Ddit4) was identified as a direct and functional target of miR-222-3p. miR-222-3p is negatively regulated by Ddit4. The mutation of binding site of Ddit4 3'UTR abrogated the responsiveness of luciferase reporters to miR-222-3p and showed that Ddit4 expression partially attenuated the function of miR-222-3p. We preliminatively confirmed that low expression of miR-222-3p has reduced the expression of β-catenin, TCF4 and other related genes in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Collectively, these results demonstrated that miR-222-3p regulates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway through Ddit4 inhibition in HT-22 cells, resulted in cell proliferation and apoptosis imbalance, and thus led to neural tube defects.
