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

Epilepsy is the most common serious neurological disorder worldwide, however, the specific causative factors and mechanisms underlying epilepsy remain unclear. The current study aimed to study the potential genes or pathways associated with epilepsy, based on rat miRNA expression profiles. The microarray dataset GSE49850 was downloaded and analyzed with the TimeCourse R software package, which was used to generate comparisons between the control and electrically-stimulated groups. The target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs were queried in the miRWalk database and functional enrichment was conducted using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery software tools. The interaction network of the target genes was constructed based on the Biomolecular Interaction Network Database and clustered using ClusterONE. In total, 152 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified, with rno-miR-21-5p being the most significantly differentially expressed. A total of 526 target genes of the differentially expressed miRNAs were obtained. Functional analysis indicated that these genes were predominantly involved in responses to stimuli. The interaction network showed that the GRIN and STX gene family, which are involved in synaptic signal transmission, were significant. In conclusion, the present study identified that the development of epilepsy was closely associated with neuronal calcium signaling pathways.
