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

backgroundEsophageal cancer is a highly invasive malignancy that severely impairs normal digestive function and poses a substantial threat to patient survival. The pathogenesis of miRNA-mediated tumors has been widely documented.

aimVerifying the involvement of miR-335-3p in the pathogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

methodsThe study enrolled 90 ESCC patients, from whom clinical data and pathological tissue samples were acquired. The prognostic potential of dysregulated miR-335-3p in ESCC was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. miR-335-3p and GFPT1 expression in the specimens were measured by RT-qPCR. Cellular biological functions were verified through transfection, CCK-8, Transwell, and kit-based assays. The targeting relationship was ascertained by luciferase activity assays.

resultsmiR-335-3p was downregulated in ESCC, which is indicative of poorer prognostic outcomes. GFPT1 was up-regulated and was regarded as a target of miR-335-3p. Increased miR-335-3p levels markedly impaired cellular biological functions. Conversely, simultaneous overexpression of GFPT1 alleviated the negative effects induced by miR-335-3p mimic, which was associated with the partial restoration of cell activity and antioxidant capacity.

conclusionmiR-335-3p represents a potential independent prognostic marker in ESCC. The anti-tumor activity induced by miR-335-3p overexpression may be associated with its regulation of GFPT1.
