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

backgroundHead and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common malignancy worldwide. Accumulating evidences have highlighted the importance of transcriptome data during HNSCC tumorigenesis. The aim of this study was to identify significant genes as effective biomarkers for HNSCC and constructed miRNA-mRNA regulatory network for a more comprehensive understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms.

methodsA total of four independent microarrays conducted on HNSCC samples were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and analyzed through R software. FunRich was applied to predict potential transcription factors and targeted genes of miRNAs. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and miRNA-mRNA regulatory network were constructed in Cytoscape. Additionally, the database for annotation, visualization, and integrated discovery (DAVID) was utilized to perform GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses. Validation of gene expression levels was conducted by online databases and qPCR experiments.

resultsA total of 35 and 193 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) and mRNAs (DEGs) were screened out by the limma package in R. The interactive network of the overlapping DEGs presented three significant modules and ten hub genes (

conclusionsWe performed an integrated and comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of miRNAs and mRNAs in HNSCC, contributing to explore the underlying regulatory mechanisms and to identify genetic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HNSCC.
