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

Our objective was to identify suitable reference genes in serum miRNA for normalization and screen potential new biomarkers for osteoporosis diagnosis by a systematic study. Two types of osteoporosis models were used like as mechanical unloading and estrogen deficiency. Through a large-scale screening using microarray, qPCR validation and statistical algorithms, we first identified miR-25-3p as a suitable reference gene for both type of osteoporosis, which also showed stability during the differentiation processes of osteoblast and osteoclast. Then 15 serum miRNAs with differential expression in OVX rats were identified by microarray and qPCR validation. We further detected these 15 miRNAs in postmenopausal women and bedrest rhesus monkeys and evaluated their diagnostic value by ROC analysis. Among these miRNAs, miR-30b-5p was significantly down-regulated in postmenopausal women with osteopenia or osteoporosis; miR-103-3p, miR-142-3p, miR-328-3p were only significantly decreased in osteoporosis. They all showed positive correlations with BMD. Except miR328-3p, the other three miRNAs were also declined in the rhesus monkeys after long-duration bedrest. Their AUC values (all >0.75) proved the diagnostic potential. Our results provided a reliable normalization reference gene and verified a group of circulating miRNAs as non-invasive biomarkers in the detection of postmenopausal- and mechanical unloading- osteoporosis.
