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

Introduction: Gastric cancer (GC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. microRNAs are a group of regulatory non-coding RNAs that are involved in GC progression. miR-145 as a tumor suppressor and miR-21 as an oncomiR were shown to be dysregulated in many cancers including GC. This research aimed to enhance the expression of miR-145 while reducing the expression of miR-21 and examine their impact on the proliferation, apoptosis, and migration of GC cells. Methods: KATO III cells with high expression levels of miR-21-5p and low expression of miR-145-5p were selected. These cells were then transfected with either miR-145-5p mimics or anti-miR-21-5p, alone or in combination. Afterward, the cell survival rate was determined using the MTT assay, while apoptosis induction was investigated through V-FITC/PI and DAPI staining. Additionally, cell migration was examined using the wound healing assay, and cell cycle progression was analyzed through flow cytometry. Furthermore, gene expression levels were quantified utilizing the qRT-PCR technique. Results: The study's findings indicated that the co-replacement of miR-145-5p and anti-miR-21-5p led to a decrease in cell viability and the induction of apoptosis in GC cells. This was achieved via modulating the expression of Conclusion: Our research revealed that utilizing miR-145-5p and anti-miR-21-5p together could be a promising therapeutic approach for treating GC.
