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

objectiveThis study aimed to explore the biological function of miR-1229-3p in the occurrence and development of cervical cancer (CC).

methodsThe expression levels of miR-1229-3p and FBXL5 in CC tissues and cell lines were detected by RT-qPCR. Cell proliferation ability was evaluated by MTT. Cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by Transwell. The expression of EMT-related markers were detected by RT-qPCR. The targeting relationship between miR-1229-3p and FBXL5 was verified by dual luciferase reporter assay.

resultsThe expression of miR-1229-3p was significantly upregulated in CC tissues and CC cell lines. High expression of miR-1229-3p was associated with poor differentiation and lymph node metastasis. Overexpression of miR-1229-3p could promote the proliferation, migration, invasion of CC cells, and induce the EMT process. Dual luciferase reporter assays confirmed that FBXL5 was the direct target gene of miR-1229-3p, and their expressions showed a significant negative correlation in CC tissues. Overexpression of FBXL5 could reverse the carcinogenic effects caused by miR-1229-3p.

conclusionmiR-1229-3p directly inhibits the expression of FBXL5, thereby activating the EMT process, and ultimately promoting the proliferation, migration, and invasion of CC cells.
