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

BACKGROUND Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common and serious complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). The autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP) is one of the main intracellular self-digestive degradation systems. Lysosomal impairment and autophagic dysfunction are early events in the pathogenesis of DR, suggesting autophagy might be a novel therapeutic strategy for DR treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS In our study, we screened a differentially expressed miRNA, miR-1273g-3p, in streptozotocin (STZ)-injected DR rat retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. miR-1273g-3p inhibitor and mimic were employed to treat RPE cells to assess the role of miR-1273g-3p. QRT-PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to examine the function of miR-1273g-3p on ALP-related and DR-related proteins. RESULTS miR-1273g-3p was highly expressed in STZ-induced DM RPE cells. miR-1273g-3p mimic promoted the expression of DR-related MMP-2, MMP-9, and TNF-α proteins, and ALP-related LC3, cathepsin B, and cathepsin L factors, but miR-1273g-3p inhibitor suppressed the levels of these factors. CONCLUSIONS miR-1273g-3p is involved in the progression of DR by modulating the autophagy-lysosome pathway. These findings provided new evidence of the close relationship between DR and ALP, and reveal a new target for DR therapy.
