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

Innovative biomarkers are required to manage type 2 diabetic patients (T2DM). We focused our study on miR-126-3p and miR-21-5p levels, as biomarkers of endothelial function and inflammation. MiRNAs levels were measured in plasma from 107 healthy subjects (CTR) and 193 diabetic patients (T2DM), 76 without (T2DM NC) and 117 with (T2DM C) complications. When diabetic complication were analysed as a whole, miR-126-3p and miR-21-5p levels declined significantly from CTR to T2DM NC and T2DM C patients. When miRNAs levels were related to specific complications, significantly higher miR-21-5p levels (0.46 ± 0.44 vs. 0.26 ± 0.33, p < 0.001) and significant lower miR-126-3p levels (0.21 ± 0.21 vs. 0.28 ± 0.22, p = 0.032) were found in T2DM with previous major cardiovascular events (MACE) vs. all the others T2DM patients. To confirm these results we focused on circulating angiogenic cells (CACs) from a subgroup of 10 CTR, 15 T2DM NC and 15 T2DM patients with MACE. CACs from T2DM patients expressed higher miR-21-5p and lower miR-126-3p levels than CACs from CTR. Furthermore, CACs from T2DM + MACE showed the highest levels of miR-21-5p. Circulating miR-21-5p and miR-126-3p emerge as dynamic biomarkers of systemic inflammatory/angiogenic status. Their expression levels in CACs from T2DM with MACE suggest a shift from a proangiogenic to a proinflammatory profile.
