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

This study aimed to identify miRNAs that may contribute to the pathogenesis of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) by RNA-seq (RNA-sequencing).RNA was extracted from SSNHL patients and healthy volunteers, respectively. Sequencing was performed on HiSeq4000 platform. After filtering, clean reads were mapped to the human reference genome hg19. Differential expression analysis of miRNAs between the SSNHL samples and the normal samples was performed using DEseq to identify differentially expressed microRNAs (DEMs). The target genes of the DEMs were predicted using the online tool miRWalk, which were then mapped to DAVID (https://david.ncifcrf.gov/) for functional annotation based on GO database and for pathway enrichment analysis based on KEGG. Finally, a miRNA-target-protein-protein interaction (PPIs) network was constructed using the DEMs and their target genes with interaction.Differential expression analysis reveals 24 DEMs between the SSNHL group and control group. A total of 1083 target genes were predicted. GO functional annotation analysis reveals that the target genes in the top 10 terms are mainly related to the development of salivary glands, neurotransmission, dendritic development, and other processes. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis reveals that the target genes were functionally enriched in pathways arachidonic acid metabolism, complement and coagulation cascades, linoleic acid metabolism, and MAPK signaling pathway. In the miRNA-target-PPI network, hsa-miR-34a/548n/15a/143/23a/210/1255a/18b/ /1180/99b had the most target genes; genes YWHAG, GSK3B, CDC42, NR3C1, LCK, UNC119, SIN3A, and NFKB2, interact with most other genes among all the predicted target genes.Hsa-miR-34a/15a/23a/210/18b/548n/143 is likely to have a role in the pathogenesis of SSNHL.
