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

objectiveTo explore the mechanism of baicalin intervention in breast cancer based on microRNA microarrays.

methodsThe inhibitory rate of baicalin intervention in MCF-7 breast cancer cells was determined by MTT. Then, the miRNA microarrays were used to validate the key microRNAs. After that, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to validate microRNA, hsa-miR-15a, hsa-miR-100, hsa-miR-16, and hsa-miR-7t. Finally, the potential targets of these key microRNAs are predicted by miRWalk, and DAVID was utilized for gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and pathway enrichment analysis.

resultsBaicalin may inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner. The concentration of baicalin 150

conclusionBaicalin inhibits the proliferation of breast cancer cells. It may achieve antitumor effects through regulating microRNAs so as to affect the DNA replication (such as cellular response to DNA damage stimulus and DNA binding), RNA transcription (such as regulation of transcription, DNA-templated, transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter, and transcription factor binding), protein synthesis (such as mRNA binding, Golgi apparatus, and protein complex), endocytosis, pathways in cancer, p53 signaling pathway, and so on.
