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

Although malignant glioblastoma (GBM) treatment has significantly improved in the past few decades, the prognosis of GBM remains unsatisfactory. MicroRNA (miR)-138-5p has been reported as a tumor suppressor in several types of human cancer; however, little is known about the function of miR-138-5p in GBM. The present study aimed to investigate the role of miR-138-5p in GBM as well as the underlying molecular mechanisms. The present study performed bioinformatics analysis, reverse transcription-quantitative (RT-q)PCR, western blotting, cell viability assays, colony formation assays, invasion assays and cell cycle analysis to investigate the biological function of miR-138-5p in both patient tissues and cell lines. In addition, miR-138-5p targets in GBM were predicted using Gene Expression Omnibus website and further validated by a dual luciferase reporter gene assay. The results revealed that miR-138-5p expression levels in patients with GBM from a Gene Expression Omnibus dataset were significantly downregulated. RT-qPCR analysis of miR-138-5p expression levels also revealed similar results in GBM tissues and cell lines. The upregulation of miR-138-5p expression levels using a mimic significantly inhibited the cell viability, colony formation and the G
