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

Emerging studies have demonstrated that microRNAs (miRs) are profoundly involved in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and related metabolic diseases. Previously, we revealed a repertoire of miRs dysregulated in NAFLD by high-throughput sequencing. Here, we showed that microRNA-199a-3p was down-regulated in the livers of C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat-diet (HFD) and oleic acid/palmitic acid-induced Hepa1-6 cells. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function studies demonstrated that microRNA-199a-3p exhibited a suppressive role in hepatic lipogenesis. Adenoviral mediated microRNA-199a-3p expression in C57BL/6J mice largely attenuated triglyceride (TG) accumulation and expression of lipogenic genes. Furthermore, we identified Specificity Protein 1 (Sp1) as the functional target of miR-124. Restoration of Sp1 expression largely compromised the effect of microRNA-199a-3p on hepatic TG metabolism. Taken together, our findings uncover a novel function of microRNA-199a-3p/Sp1 axis in NAFLD and provide a mechanism underlying perturbations of hepatic TG homeostasis.
