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

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the functional role and underlying mechanism of miR-499a-5p in the progression of uterine leiomyoma (ULM). Methods: Expression levels of miR-499a-5p were analyzed in ULM tissues and cells. Functional assays were conducted to evaluate the effects of miR-499a-5p knockdown or overexpression on cellular proliferation, migration, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression. The involvement of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway was assessed using pathway-specific protein markers and lithium chloride (LiCl) as a chemical activator. Results: miR-499a-5p was significantly upregulated in ULM tissues and cells. Its knockdown inhibited proliferation and migration, induced apoptosis, and caused cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase. Additionally, downregulation of miR-499a-5p suppressed the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, an effect that was reversed by LiCl treatment. Conclusion: miR-499a-5p facilitates the development of uterine leiomyoma by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. These findings suggest that miR-499a-5p may serve as a promising molecular biomarker and a potential therapeutic target for ULM management.
