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

objectiveMicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression during the peri-implantation period. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether genetic polymorphisms in the four miRNAs associated with fetal or placental development play roles in the development of idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in Korean females. STUDY

designA case-control study involving 225 controls and 387 women with at least two consecutively recurrent pregnancy losses between 1999 and 2012 was performed. The genotypes of the four miRNA polymorphisms, including miR-27a rs895819, miR-423 rs6505162, miR-449b rs10061133, and miR-605 rs2043556, were analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were estimated using multivariate analyses after maternal age adjustments. The relationships between each of the four microRNA genotypes and each of the six clinical parameters of the RPL patients (plasma homocysteine and folate levels, natural killer cell number, platelet count, prothrombin time, and, activated partial thromboplastin time) were analyzed using multiple linear regression analyses.

resultsOur results suggest that weak associations between decreased RPL risk and the genotypes of miR-27a (AG and AG+GG), combination genotype of miR-27a/miR-423 (AG/GC), and haplotypes of miR-27a/miR-423/miR-449b/miR-605 (G-C-A-G) and miR-27a/miR-449b/miR-605 (G-A-G), whereas weak associations between increased RPL risk and genotypes of miR-449b (GG and AG+GG), combination genotypes of miR-423/miR-449b (CC/GG and CA/AG), miR-449b/miR-605 (AG/AG), haplotypes of miR-27a/miR-423/miR-449b/miR-605 (A-C-G-A, A-A-A-G, and G-C-G-G), miR-27a/miR-423/miR-449b (A-C-G), miR-27a/miR-449b/miR-605 (A-A-G, A-G-A, and G-G-G), miR-423/miR-449b/miR-605 (C-G-G and A-A-G), and miR-423/miR-449b (C-G and A-A). The genotypes of miR-27a (AG and AG+GG) also showed significant contributions to the prediction of folate levels in RPL patients.

conclusionsThe study showed associations between miRNA polymorphisms (miR-27a rs895819 and miR-449b rs10061133) and RPL development, and between the miRNA polymorphism (miR-27a rs895819) and plasma folate levels.
