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

Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) is a class of zinc-dependent enzymes that play an important role in the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells and have different types. MMP-2 is one of the important enzymes of this family. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding RNAs that are involved in the regulation of gene expression of many enzymes and factors in the body. Emerging data have highlighted the relationship between MMP-2 and miRNAs. Studies have shown that miRNAs regulate MMP-2 by binding to the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR), which leads to a decrease or increase in MMP-2 expression and its enzymatic activity. For example, decreased expression of miR-106b leads to increased growth and invasion of breast cancer (BC) cells through increased expression of MMP-2. Therefore, understanding the regulatory mechanisms related to MMP-2 and miRNAs will provide new insights into the molecular pathways that drive BC progression and highlight potential therapeutic targets for the management of invasion and metastasis. Hence, in this study, we aimed to elucidate the relationship between MMP-2 and miRNAs in BC.
