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

objectiveAlthough differentially expressed circRNAs have been proposed to be closely associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), the roles of circRNAs remain unclear in endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT), which is a subcategory of EMT. Herein, we characterized the expression and potential function of circRNAs during TGF-ß1-induced EndMT in rat coronary artery endothelial cells (CAEC).

methodsHigh-throughput RNA sequencing was performed for unbiasedly profiling the expression of circRNAs. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) biological pathway analysis were performed using online forecasting databases. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used for confirming the circRNA expression obtained from the sequencing data.

resultsAmong the candidated circRNAs, 102 circRNAs were differentially expressed, among which 66 circRNAs and 36 circRNAs were up-regulated and down-regulated, respectively, in TGF-ß1-treated rat CAEC. GO analysis findings revealed that numerous differentially expressed circRNAs were closely associated with the biological process. KEGG signaling pathway analysis suggested that the abnormal expression of circRNAs had been implicated in regulating the dynamics endothelial cell junctions. Furthermore, we also found that three EndMT-related circRNAs, chr5:90817794|90827570, chr8:71336875|71337745, and chr6:22033342|22038870, were significantly up-regulated in TGF-ß1-treated rat CAEC.

conclusionThe findings of this study reveal a comprehensive expression and potential functions of differentially expressed circRNAs during TGF-ß1-induced EndMT. These findings provide mechanistic insights into the role of circRNAs in EndMT-related cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).
