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

backgroundEmerging studies have demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in the carcinogenesis of many developing human tumors. However, the clinical significance and biological function of microRNA-3648 (miR-3648) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have been largely undefined.

methodsThe expression of miR-3648 and the mRNA of adenomatous polyposis coli 2 (APC2) in NSCLC tissues and cell lines were analyzed using quantitative real-time RT-PCR. The prognostic value of miR-3648 and APC2 was examined using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analyses. Experiments using NSCLC cells were conducted to explore the influences of miR-3648 on tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion.

resultIncreased expression of miR-3648 was observed in NSCLC tissues and cell lines compared with the corresponding controls (all P<0.05). miR-3648 expression was associated with the differentiation, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (all P<0.05) of NSCLC patients, and high expression of miR-3648 was associated with poor overall survival rate. NSCLC cell proliferation, migration and invasion were significantly enhanced by miR-3648 overexpression. The further luciferase reporter assay and expression results showed that the decreased APC2 might also be a prognostic biomarker, and served as a target of miR-3648 in NSCLC.

conclusionThe findings from the present study indicate that the overexpression of miR-3648 serves as a useful biomarker for the prediction of prognosis in NSCLC, and promotes tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion. APC2, as another prognosis-related molecule, may be a target of miR-3648 in NSCLC.
