MicroRNA- 103 as a novel potential biomarker of poor prognosis and durg resistance in solid tumours.
Article in Discover oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroudMultiple studies have reported that microRNA-103 is unregulated in a variety of tumours, involved in tumorigenesis, and associated with tumour prognosis, so a systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to determine the relationship between microRNA-103 and the prognosis of solid tumours.
methodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases were searched to retrieve articles to determine the relationship between microRNA-103 and tumour prognosis. Relevant articles were graded according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). The 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated by the fixed-effect/random-effect models and the risk ratio (RR) were summarised.
resultsEight out of 162 retrieved articles were included in this review, with an average NOS score of 7.2 points. Four studies of tissue samples and four studies of serum samples suggested that the overexpression of microRNA-103 was associated with overall survival (RR = 2.65, 95% CI: 1.79-3.93, P = 0.000 and RR = 3.31, 95% CI: 2.04-5.36, P = 0.000, respectively).
conclusionThis meta-analysis, combining 9 studies, found that overexpression of miRNA-103 is associated with poor prognosis in solid tumours, particularly in serum samples. Sensitivity analysis confirmed that high tissue expression correlates with poor outcomes. miRNA-103's role in tumor progression suggests its potential as a prognostic biomarker for solid tumors, warranting further research for clinical applications.
