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

In most patients with advanced prostate cancer treated with hormonal therapy, androgen independence eventually emerges, leading to death. Androgen receptor signalling remains an important prostate cancer driver, even in the advanced disease stage. MicroRNAs (miRs), non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by inhibiting translation and/or promoting degradation of target mRNAs, can act as tumour suppressors or "oncomiRs" and modulate tumour growth. Because of their stability in tissues and in circulation, and their specificity, microRNAs have emerged as potential biomarkers, as well as therapeutic targets in cancer. We identified miR-1271-5p as an androgen receptor modulatory microRNA and we show it can promote hormone sensitive prostate cancer cell growth. Inhibition or overexpression of miR-1271-5p levels affects prostate cancer cell growth, apoptosis and expression of both androgen receptor target genes and other genes that are likely direct targets, dependent on androgen receptor status, and tumour stage. We conclude that miR-1271-5p has the potential to drive progression of hormone-dependent disease and that the use of specific inhibitors of miR-1271-5p may have therapeutic potential in prostate cancer.
