MiR-BART1-3p and BART18-5p inhibit cell migration, proliferation and activate autophagy in Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric cancer by targeting erythropoietin-producing human hepatocellular 2.
Article in Virus genes, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human tumor-associated virus that encodes various microRNAs. EBV infection causes a variety of malignant tumors, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma and gastric cancer, etc. EBV-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC) has unique molecular characteristics from other gastric cancers, but its pathogenic mechanism remains unclear. In recent years, erythropoietin-producing human hepatocellular 2 (EphA2) has been reported to be highly expressed in various cancers and promote tumor growth and metastasis. As an important cancer oncogene, EphA2 is a potential therapeutic target. However, whether EBV is involved in the regulation of EphA2 and thus affects the progression of EBVaGC remains unclear. In this study, we found that the expression of EphA2 in EBVaGC cells was significantly lower than that in EBV-negative gastric cancer (EBVnGC) cells. Additionally, overexpression of EphA2 in EBVaGC cells promoted migration and proliferation, and inhibited autophagy. EBV-miR-BART1-3p and BART18-5p were found to target the 3'-UTR of EphA2 and down-regulate its expression. Our results suggest that EBV may be involved in gastric cancer progression by targeting EphA2 through BART1-3p and BART18-5p.
