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

backgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent condition associated with high morbidity and mortality that can cause or exacerbate heart failure and is an important risk factor for stroke. AF is the disorganized propagation of electrical activity in the atrium, which prevents organized contractions. However, the effect of microRNAs and the patterns of the regulatory network of AF remain vague. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe mRNA expression data of atrial tissue splices from 3 conditions - permanent atrial fibrillation (AF), sinus rhythm (SR), and human left ventricular non-failing myocardium (LV) - were downloaded from GSE2240 and the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the 3 kinds of samples were calculated. Then we constructed 3 miRNA-DEGs networks and these networks were integrated to construct the final merged AF-related microRNA regulatory network. Finally, we constructed the miRNA-inflammation networks to detect the roles of miRNAs in inflammation development of AF.

resultsThis network included 108 DEGs, and 27 microRNAs and DEGs are regulated by both microRNAs. We found that a sub-network composed by miR-124, miR-183, miR-215, miR-192, and a DEG of EGR1 were all represents in these 3 networks. Based on functional enrichment analysis, some biological process, such as energy and glucan metabolic process and heart and blood vessel development, were found to be regulated by miRNAs in AF. Some miRNAs, such as miR-26b and miR-355p, were involved in inflammation in AF.

conclusionsIn conclusion, the microRNA regulatory network sheds new light on the molecular mechanism of AF with this non-coding regulated model.
