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

MicroRNAs (miRs) are key posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression in all eukaryotic cells and have a vital role in the evolution of hypertension and cardiovascular remodelling and, therefore, have emerged as potential biomarkers for cardiovascular disease. We assessed 240 participants, including 60 healthy volunteers with normal carotid intima-media thickness (nCIMT), 60 healthy volunteers with increased CIMT (iCIMT), 60 hypertensive patients with nCIMT and 60 hypertensive patients with iCIMT. All patients underwent measurements of CIMT, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring. Plasma miR-92a expression was quantified by real-time reverse transcription PCR. Correlations between miR-92a expression and BP parameters, CIMT and cfPWV were assessed using the Spearman correlation coefficient. We observed the lowest miR-92a expression (24.59±1.30 vs 27.76±2.13 vs 29.29±1.89 vs 33.76±2.08; P<0.001) in healthy controls with nCIMT, followed by healthy controls with iCIMT, then hypertensive patients with nCIMT and the highest expression in hypertensive patients with iCIMT. Additionally, MiR-92a levels showed a significant positive correlation with 24-h mean systolic BP (r=0.807, P<0.001), 24-h mean diastolic BP (r=0.649, P<0.001), 24-h mean pulse pressure (PP) (r=0.697, P<0.001), 24-h daytime PP (r=0.654, P<0.001), 24-h nighttime PP (r=0.573, P<0.001), CIMT (r=0.571, P<0.001) and cfPWV (r=0.601, P<0.001). Our data present significant evidence that circulating miR-92a represents a potential noninvasive atherosclerosis marker in essential hypertensive patients.
