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

Objectives: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), which affects 15-20% of cases, lacks targeted therapies and poses challenges in treatment. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets in breast cancer. To unravel its unique regulatory role, this study focused on miRNA microarray analysis, particularly miR-548F-3p, in TNBC samples. Materials and Methods: Using the GSE76275 dataset, gene expression profiles were analyzed using the Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using robust preprocessing. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) explored gene modules and identified hub genes co-expressed with miR-548F-3p. Functional enrichment and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analyses were conducted. Survival analysis was used to assess the prognostic impact of the identified genes. Results: The study found 224 up-regulated DEGs, with miR-548F-3p exhibiting significant down-regulation. MultimiR identified 400 genes that were targeted by miR-548F-3p. WGCNA revealed a blue co-expression module, with 356 genes targeted by miR-548F-3p. A Venn diagram identified common genes, including VANGL2, BRCC3, ANP32E, and ANLN. Functional enrichment highlighted crucial pathways in TNBC pathogenesis, including mitotic spindle organization, spindle assembly checkpoint signaling, cell cycle, and amino acid (serine) metabolism. PPI network analysis identified hub genes, including FOXM1, KIF23, and CDC20. VANGL2, BRCC3, ANP32E, and ANLN were significantly associated with patient outcomes in survival analysis. Conclusion: This analysis highlighted TNBC's molecular landscape, emphasizing miR-548F-3p's regulatory role. The identified genes, VANGL2, BRCC3, ANP32E, and ANLN, offer insights into TNBC pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets, laying the foundation for understanding their clinical implications in the intricate landscape of TNBC.
