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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs ranging from 17 to 25 nt in length. miR-637 is down-regulated in most cancers and up-regulated only in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). miR-637 can target 21 protein-coding genes, which are involved in the regulation of cell growth, cell cycle, cell proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cancer cell invasion and metastasis, etc. In glioma, the transcription factor ZEB2 can bind to the miR-637 promoter region and inhibit miR-637 expression. Besides, miR-637 could be negatively regulated by competing endogenous RNA (ceRNAs) comprising 13 circular RNA (circRNAs) and 9 long non-coding RNA (lncRNAs). miR-637 is involved in regulating five signaling pathways, including the Jak/STAT3, Wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/AKT, and ERK signaling pathways. Low miR-637 expression was significantly associated with larger tumors and later tumor node metastasis (TNM) staging in cancer patients. Low miR-637 expression was also associated with poorer overall survival (OS) in cancer patients such as glioblastoma and low-grade gliomas (GBM/LGG), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and ovarian cancer (OV). Low expression of miR-637 increases the resistance of colorectal cancer (CRC) and human cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL) cancer cells to three anticancer chemotherapeutics (gemcitabine (dFdC), cisplatin (DDP), and oxaliplatin (OXA)). Our work summarizes the abnormal expression of miR-637 in various cancers, expounds on the ceRNA regulatory network and signaling pathway involved in miR-637, and summarizes the effect of its abnormal expression on the biological behavior of tumor cells. At the same time, the relationship between the expression levels of miR-637 and its related molecules and the prognosis and pathological characteristics of patients was further summarized. Finally, our work points out the insufficiency of miR-637 in current studies and is expected to provide potential clues for future miR-637-related studies.
