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

backgroundMicroRNA (miR)-214-3p is emerging as an important tumor suppressor in esophageal cancer. In this study, we examined the interaction between miR-214-3p and RAB14, a membrane trafficking protein shown to exert oncogenic functions in other malignancies, in esophageal cancer cells.

methodsStudies were performed in a human esophageal epithelial cell line and a panel of esophageal cancer cell lines, as well in human specimens. MiR-214-3p expression was measured by digital PCR. Biotinylated RNA pull-down and luciferase reporter assays assessed binding. The xCELLigence RTCA system measured cell migration and invasion in real time. A lentiviral expression vector was used to create an esophageal cancer cell line stably expressing miR-214-3p.

resultsMiR-214-3p expression was decreased in esophageal cancer cell lines and human specimens compared to non-malignant controls. RAB14 mRNA stability and protein expression were decreased following miR-214-3p overexpression. Binding between miR-214-3p and RAB14 mRNA was observed. Either forced expression of miR-214-3p or RAB14 silencing led to a marked decrease in cellular migration and invasion. Esophageal cancer cells stably expressing miR-214-3p demonstrated decreased growth in a subcutaneous murine model.

conclusionsThese results further support the tumor-suppressive role of miR-214-3p in esophageal cancer cells by demonstrating its ability to regulate RAB14 expression.
