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

Evaluation of the function of microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) through miRNA expression profiles during neuronal differentiation plays a critical role not only in identifying unique miRNAs relevant to cellular development but also in understanding regulatory functions of the cell-specific miRNAs in living organisms. Here, we examined the microarray-based miRNA expression profiles of G2 cells (recently developed human neural stem cells) and monitored the expression pattern of known neuron-specific miR-9 and miR-124a during neuronal differentiation of G2 cells in vitro and in vivo. Of 500 miRNAs analyzed by microarray of G2 cells, the expression of 90 miRNAs was significantly increased during doxycycline-dependent neuronal differentiation of G2 cells and about 60 miRNAs showed a gradual enhancement of gene expression as neuronal differentiation progressed. Real-time PCR showed that expression of endogenous mature miR-9 was continuously and gradually increased in a pattern dependent on the period of neuronal differentiation of G2 cells while the increased expression of neuron-specific mature miR-124a was barely observed during neurogenesis. Our recently developed miRNA reporter imaging vectors (CMV/Gluc/3×PT_miR-9 and CMV/Gluc/3×PT_miR-124a) containing Gaussia luciferase, CMV promoter and three copies of complementary nucleotides of each corresponding miRNA showed that luciferase activity from CMV/Gluc/3×PT_miR-9 was gradually decreased both in vitro and in vivo in G2 cells induced to differentiate into neurons. However, in vitro and in vivo bioluminescence signals for CMV/Gluc/3×PT_miR-124a were not significantly different between undifferentiated and differentiated G2 cells. Our results demonstrate that biogenesis of neuron-specific miR-124a is not necessary for doxycycline-dependent neurogenesis of G2 cells.
