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

Rhizopus delemar is an emerging fungal pathogen causing devastating mucormycosis in immunocompromised individuals. The organism remains understudied and there are urgent needs for new methods of rapid disease diagnosis for timely therapy. Extracellular vesicles with encapsulated RNAs have recently been discovered to have great potential applications for disease diagnoses and treatments. To explore the utilization of ex-RNA in studies of mucormycosis, we have performed RNA-Seq of ex-sRNAs from two clinical strains of R. delemar. Approximately 3.3 and 3.2 million clean reads were obtained from FGSC-9543 and CDC-8219 strains, respectively. The median sequence length of the sRNAs was 22 nts, with a minimum of 18 and a maximum of 30 nts. Further annotation identified 560 and 526 miRNAs from FGSC-9543 and CDC-8219 strains, respectively. miRNA target prediction and analysis of GO and KEGG pathways have revealed that the regulation of metabolism, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, and two-component system signaling are important during growth. We have also validated RNA-Seq by qRT-PCR and Northern blotting analysis of randomly selected miRNAs. Our results show that R. delemar has a rich reservoir of secreted ex-sRNAs and our studies could facilitate the development of improved diagnostic methods as well as elucidating virulence mechanisms for R. delemar infection.
