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

Breast cancer remains the leading malignancy in terms of morbidity and mortality today. The tumor microenvironment of breast cancer includes multiple cell types, secreted proteins, and signaling components such as exosomes. Among these, exosomes have a lipid bilayer structure. Exosomes can reflect the biological traits of the parent cell and carry a variety of biologically active components, including proteins, lipids, small molecules, and non-coding RNAs, which include miRNA, lncRNA, and circRNA. MiRNAs are a group of non-coding RNAs of approximately 20-23 nucleotides in length encoded by the genome, triggering silencing and functional repression of target genes. MiRNAs have been shown to play a significant role in the development of cancer owing to their role in the prognosis, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. MiRNAs in exosomes can serve as effective mediators of information transfer from parental cells to recipient cells and trigger changes in biological traits such as proliferation, invasion, migration, and drug resistance. These changes can profoundly alter the progression of breast cancer. Therefore, here, we systematically summarize the association of exosomal miRNAs on breast cancer progression, diagnosis, and treatment in the hope of providing novel strategies and directions for subsequent breast cancer treatment.
