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

purposeMicroRNAs were identified as molecules that participate in gene regulation; alterations in their expression characterize central nervous system (CNS). Information in pediatrics is scarce, so the objective of this work was to determine and then compare the patterns of expression of microRNAs in astrocytomas, ependymomas, and medulloblastomas, as well as in non-neoplastic brain.

methodsLow-density arrays were utilized to evaluate 756 microRNAs in three samples of each type of tumor and non-neoplastic brain. The relative expression was calculated in order to identify the three microRNAs whose expression was modified notably. This was verified using RT-qPCR in more number of tumor samples.

resultsThe microRNAs selected for testing were miR-100-5p, miR-195-5p, and miR-770-5p. A higher expression of miR-100-5p was observed in the astrocytomas and ependymomas compared to the medulloblastomas: on average 3.8 times (p < 0.05). MiR-770-5p was expressed less in medulloblastomas compared to astrocytomas four times (p = 0.0162). MiR-195-5p had a low expression in medulloblastomas compared to non-neoplastic cerebellum (p = 0.049). In all three tumor types, expression of miR-770-5p was lower than in non-neoplastic brain (p < 0.001).

conclusionsThese microRNAs may represent potential markers in these tumors.
