Effect of propofol on microRNA expression in rat primary embryonic neural stem cells.
Article in BMC anesthesiology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundPropofol is a widely used intravenous anesthetic that is well-known for its protective effect in various human and animal disease models. However, the effects of propofol on neurogenesis, especially on the development of neural stem cells (NSCs), remains unknown. Related microRNAs may act as important regulators in this process.
methodsPublished Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) DataSets related to propofol were selected and re-analyzed to screen neural development-related genes and predict microRNA (miRNA) expression using bioinformatic methods. Screening of the genes and miRNAs was then validated by qRT-PCR analysis of propofol-treated primary embryonic NSCs.
resultsFour differentially expressed mRNAs were identified in the screen and 19 miRNAs were predicted based on a published GEO DataSet. Two of four mRNAs and four of 19 predicted miRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR analysis of propofol-treated NSCs. Rno-miR-19a (Rno, Rattus Norvegicus) and rno-miR-137, and their target gene EGR2, as well as rno-miR-19b-2 and rno-miR-214 and their target gene ARC were found to be closely related to neural developmental processes, including proliferation, differentiation, and maturation of NSCs.
conclusionPropofol influences miRNA expression; however, further studies are required to elucidate the mechanism underlying the effects of propofol on the four miRNAs and their target genes identified in this study. In particular, the influence of propofol on the entire development process of NSCs remains to be clarified.
