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

backgroundWe currently do not know how the herbicide nitrofen induces lung hypoplasia and congenital diaphragmatic hernia in rats. Our aim was to compare the differentially expressed transcriptome of nitrofen-induced hypoplastic lungs to control lungs in embryonic day 13 rat embryos before the development of embryonic diaphragmatic defects.

methodsUsing next-generation sequencing technology, we identified the expression profile of microRNA (miRNA) and mRNA genes. Once the dataset was validated by both RT-qPCR and digital-PCR, we conducted gene ontology, miRNA target analysis, and orthologous miRNA sequence matching for the deregulated miRNAs in silico.

resultsOur study identified 186 known mRNA and 100 miRNAs which were differentially expressed in nitrofen-induced hypoplastic lungs. Sixty-four rat miRNAs homologous to known human miRNAs were identified. A subset of these genes may promote lung hypoplasia in rat and/or human, and we discuss their associations. Potential miRNA pathways relevant to nitrofen-induced lung hypoplasia include PI3K, TGF-β, and cell cycle kinases.

conclusionNitrofen-induced hypoplastic lungs have an abnormal transcriptome that may lead to impaired development.
