Expression and Correlation Research of MicroRNA10a-5p and PIK3CA in Middle Ear Cholesteatoma.
Article in The journal of international advanced otology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to examine the roles of miR-10a-5p and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphonate 3-kinase catalytic subunit α in the pathogenesis of middle ear cholesteatoma.
methodsWe enrolled 27 patients with middle ear cholesteatoma and collected samples of intraoperative cholesteatoma and normal posterior ear skin tissues. The mRNA expression levels of miR-10a-5p and PIK3CA were detected using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. PIK3CA protein expression was measured by immunohistochemistry and western blotting.
resultsMiddle ear cholesteatoma tissues showed significantly lower miR-10a-5p expression levels and significantly higher PIK3CA expression levels than normal posterior ear skin tissues (both P < .05). Furthermore, the miR-10a-5p and PIK3CA expression levels were significantly negatively correlated in middle ear cholesteatoma tissues (r = -0.926, P < .001).
conclusionLow miR-10a-5p expression levels in middle ear cholesteatoma tissues may inhibit the growth and proliferation of cholesteatoma, whereas high PIK3CA expression level may promote its growth and proliferation. In addition, miR-10a-5p may affect the proliferation and differentiation of cholesteatoma by negatively regulating its target gene, PIK3CA.
