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

backgroundmiR-200a-3p is involved in the progression of malignant behavior in various tumors, and its mechanism of action in endometrial cancer is speculated to be related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Therefore, this study explored the metastatic mechanism of miR-200a-3p and EMT in endometrial cancer, with the aim of identifying potential therapeutic targets.

methodsqRT-PCR was used to analyze miR-200a-3p expression in HEC-1B and Ishikawa cell lines. The cell proliferation assay, transwell assay, and cell scratch test were used to assess changes in the malignant phenotypes of cells after regulating miR-200a-3p expression. Changes in EMT-related protein zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) were detected after regulating miR-200a-3p expression. An endometrial carcinoma transplantation mouse tumor model was constructed, and multiple EMT-related proteins were examined.

resultsThe expression of miR-200a-3p and ZEB1 in the endometrial cancer cell lines was higher than in normal endometrial epithelial cell lines (P < 0.05). After silencing miR-200a-3p, the expression of EMT-related protein ZEB1 increased, indicating a negative correlation. Simultaneously, the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of endometrial cancer cells were significantly enhanced. After miR-200a-3p overexpression, the corresponding malignant phenotype was reversed (P < 0.05). In in vivo experiments, the degree of tumor malignancy and the expression level of EMT-related proteins were significantly reduced in the miR-200a-3p mimic group (P < 0.05).

conclusionThis study found that miR-200a-3p is a promising target, regulating the EMT process and promoting endometrial cancer progression.
