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

backgroundMany studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) play an essential role in gene regulation and tumor development. This study aimed to explore the expression of miR-379-5p and its mechanisms of affecting proliferation, migration, and invasion in breast cancer (BC).

methodsMiRNAs and mRNAs expression data of BC and normal breast tissue samples were downloaded from the TCGA and GEO databases. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-379-5p in human normal breast epithelial cell lines and human BC cell lines. The proliferation ability of transfected cells was detected by colony formation and EdU assays. The mobility and invasion ability of transfected cells was measured by wound healing and transwell assays. The relative protein expression of transfected cells was detected by western blot. Dual luciferase reporter assay was performed to identify the targeted binding of miR-379-5p and KIF4A.

resultsMiR-379-5p was lowly expressed in BC tissue samples and BC cell lines. The target genes of miR-379-5p were involved in many cancer-related signaling pathways. PPI analysis and the cytoHubba algorithm of Cytoscape identified 10 genes as the hub genes. Survival analysis showed that only KIF4A expression in 10 hub genes was significantly associated with the prognosis of BC patients and was significantly upregulated in BC. Overexpression of miR-379-5p inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion in the BC cell line MDA-MB-231, which could be reversed by KIF4A.

conclusionsMiR-379-5p inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion of BC by targeting KIF4A.
