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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) mainly depends on liver fibrosis/cirrhosis, which is regulated by tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME), and is a crucial factor in tumor progression. This study aimed to identify abnormally expressed miR-500a-3p in the hepatitis-cirrhosis-HCC pathway and explored the roles of miR-500a-3p in HCC progression. A clinical cohort of patients with HCC is studied retrospectively. Subsequently, the role of miR-500a-3p transported by HCC exosomes in hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation, hepatoma growth and invasion, and immune cell differentiation is determined by in vitro and in vivo experiments. In clinical tissues, miR-500a-3p is significantly enriched in HCC and cirrhosis tissues, and co-expression of the immune marker CD4 or PD-L1 significantly correlates with low survival rates in patients. Extracellular miR-500a-3p is taken up by HSC and PBMC, which promotes the secretion of the cytokines TGF-β1 and IL-10, increases PD-L1 expression in HSC, and stabilizes PD-1 expression in PBMC to affect the TME. Moreover, miR-500a-3p is associated with CD4
