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

backgroundA growing body of evidence suggests that microRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulatory factors in cervical cancer (CC). However, the role and mechanism of action of miR-3074-5p in CC remain unclear.

objectiveThe objective of this research is to elucidate the function of miR-3074-5p in CC.

methodsTumor tissues were collected from 141 CC patients. RT-qPCR was used to detect miR-3074-5p expression. Kaplan-Meier survival curves analyzed the association between the miR-3074-5p and 5-year overall survival rates. Cox regression models evaluated the potential prognostic value of miR-3074-5p. Cell proliferation was assessed using the CCK-8 assay, while cell migration and invasion capabilities were evaluated via Transwell experiments. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assays (DLR) and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) experiments identified miR-3074-5p target genes, with Pearson correlation analysis evaluated their associations.

resultsmiR-3074-5p was markedly increased in CC. Its overexpression was closely associated with poor patient prognosis. Inhibiting miR-3074-5p expression effectively attenuated the malignant behavior of CC cells. miR-3074-5p directly targets TGFBR2, with inverse expression patterns confirmed in clinical samples. Rescue experiments demonstrated that TGFBR2 knockdown partially counteracted the tumor-suppressive effects induced by miR-3074-5p inhibition.

conclusionDownregulation of miR-3074-5p suppresses the malignant phenotype of CC cells by targeting TGFBR2. This finding provides initial insights into the cellular behavior of CC.
