Potential of miR-181a-5p and miR-630 as clinical biomarkers in NSCLC.
Article in BMC cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundThe development of drug resistance and high mortality rates are the major problems observed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Biomarkers indicating and predicting disease development towards these unfavorable directions are therefore on high demand. Many studies have demonstrated that changes in miRNAs expression may be associated with a response to treatment and disease prognosis, thus suggesting its potential biomarker value for a broad spectrum of clinical applications. The aim of the present study was to investigate the expression level of miR-181a-5p, miR-630, and its targets in NSCLC tumor tissue and plasma samples; and to analyze its association with NSCLC patient's response to treatment and disease prognosis.
methodsThe study was performed in 89 paired tissue specimens and plasma samples obtained from NSCLC patients who underwent surgical treatment at the Department of Thoracic Surgery and Oncology of the National Cancer Institute. Analysis of miR-181a-5p and miR-630 expression was performed by qRT-PCR using TaqMan miRNA specific primers. Whereas BCL2, LMO3, PTEN, SNAI2, WIF1 expression levels were identified with KAPA SYBR FAST qPCR Kit. Each sample was examined in triplicate and calculated following the 2-
resultsIt was found that miR-181a-5p and miR-630 expression levels in NSCLC tissue and plasma samples were significantly decreased compared with control samples. Moreover, patients with low miR-181a-5p expression in tumor tissue and plasma had longer PFS rates than those with high miRNA expression. Decreased miR-630 expression in tumor was statistically significantly associated with better NSCLC patients' OS. In addition, the expression of miR-181a-5p, as well as miR-630 in tumor tissue, are the statistically significant variables for NSCLC patients' OS. Moreover, in NSCLC patient plasma samples circulating miR-181a-5p can be evaluated as significant independent prognostic factors for OS and PFS.
conclusionsOur findings indicate the miR-181a-5p and miR-630 expression levels have the potential to prognose and predict and therefore improve the treatment individualization and the outcome of NSCLC patients. Circulating miR-181a-5p has the potential clinical value as a non-invasive biomarker for NSCLC.
