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

objectiveCholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most common liver cancer, characterized by late diagnosis and fatal outcome. Although miR-192-5p has been shown to have a vital role in various cancers, its role in CCA is unknown. Here, we investigated the role of miR-192-5p in CCA cell proliferation and apoptosis, and elucidated its potential mechanism of action.

methodsThe miR-192-5p expression in CCA tissues and cell lines was detected by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Cell proliferation was analyzed using the cell counting Kit-8 and 5-bromodeoxyuridine staining assays, while apoptosis was examined by flow cytometry and the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling assay. Western blot analysis was used to measure the expression of cell proliferation and apoptosis-related proteins, as well as MEK/ERK signaling pathway-related proteins.

resultsMiR-192-5p was highly expressed in CCA tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of miR-192-5p significantly promoted CCA proliferation, and inhibited apoptosis. The MEK inhibitor, PD98059, reversed these miR-192-5p-induced effects on MEK/ERK signaling-associated protein expression, proliferation promotion, and apoptosis inhibition in TFK-1 cells.

conclusionMiR-192-5p promotes proliferation and suppressed apoptosis of CCA cells via the MEK/ERK pathway, which may be a potential therapeutic strategy for CCA treatment.
