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

Cardiac hypertrophy is closely associated with a series of cardiovascular diseases, including heart failure and sudden death in particular. An in-depth comprehension of the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy will improve the diagnosis and therapy of cardiac hypertrophy. It has been acknowledged that long noncoding RNAs/microRNAs (lncRNAs/miRNAs) are crucial regulators in diverse biological processes, including various cardiovascular diseases, in multiple manners. Nevertheless, the biological roles of lncRNA UCA1 and miR-184 in cardiac hypertrophy are scarcely reported. In this paper, qRT-PCR analysis exhibited that lncRNA UCA1 was highly expressed in mice heart treated with transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and the cardiomyocytes treated with phenylephrine (PE). On the contrary, miR-184 was downregulated under the same conditions. In addition, it was deduced that lncRNA UCA1 was reversely related with miR-184 in PE-triggered hypertrophic cardiomyocytes, confirmed by the Spearman correlation analysis. The knockdown of UCA1 or the overexpression of miR-184 lessened the enlarged surface area of cardiomyocytes and the elevated expressions of fetal genes (ANP and BNP) induced by PE. Later, it was determined that miR-184 was a direct target of UCA1, whereas the mRNA HOXA9 was a target of miR-184. Rescue assays indicated that UCA1 promoted the progression of cardiac hypertrophy through competitively binding with miR-184 to enhance the expression of HOXA9.
