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

We profiled microRNAs (miRNAs) in cell-free serum and plasma samples from human volunteers using deep sequencing of barcoded small RNA cDNA libraries. By introducing calibrator synthetic oligonucleotides during library preparation, we were able to calculate the total as well as specific concentrations of circulating miRNA. Studying trios of samples from newborn babies and their parents we detected placental-specific miRNA in both maternal and newborn circulations and quantitated the relative contribution of placental miRNAs to the circulating pool of miRNAs. Furthermore, sequence variation in the placental miRNA profiles could be traced to the specific placenta of origin. These deep sequencing profiles, which may serve as a model for tumor or disease detection, allow us to define the repertoire of miRNA abundance in the circulation and potential uses as biomarkers.
