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

backgroundLaryngeal cancer is a leading global cause of cancer-related mortality. The regulatory interplay between dysregulated microRNA-761 (miR-761) and oncogenic signaling pathways in laryngeal carcinogenesis has not been fully elucidated‌.

methodsThis study explored the interaction between miR-761 and programmed cell death protein 4 (PDCD4) through dual-luciferase assay, cell proliferation and migration assays, and xenograft models.

resultsMiR-761 was significantly upregulated in laryngeal cancer tissues and cell lines, inversely correlating with PDCD4 downregulation. Computational predictions and dual-luciferase assays confirmed that miR-761 targets the 3'-UTR of PDCD4, inhibiting its transcription. Functional studies showed that miR-761 knockdown restored PDCD4 expression, increasing apoptosis and reducing proliferation and migration. Conversely, miR-761 overexpression enhanced these capacities in PDCD4-low cancer cells, effects reversed by PDCD4 upregulation. In vivo xenograft models demonstrated that miR-761 inhibition reduced tumor growth, with increased PDCD4 expression.

conclusionsMiR-761 is a critical regulator of PDCD4, modulating laryngeal cancer progression through apoptosis inhibition and pro-metastatic signaling. Targeting the miR-761/PDCD4 axis offers a promising therapeutic strategy for laryngeal cancer management.
