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

Exosomal microRNAs modulate cancer cell metabolism and the immune response. Specific exosomal microRNAs have been reported to be reliable biomarkers of several solid and hematologic malignancies. We examined the possible diagnostic and prognostic values of exosomal microRNAs in two human bone marrow failure diseases: aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. After screening 372 microRNAs in a discovery set (n=42) of plasma exosome samples, we constructed a customized PCR plate, including 42 microRNAs, for validation in a larger cohort (n=99). We identified 25 differentially expressed exosomal microRNAs uniquely or frequently present in aplastic anemia and/or myelodysplastic syndromes. These microRNAs could be related to intracellular functions, such as metabolism, cell survival, and proliferation. Clinical parameters and progression-free survival were correlated to microRNA expression levels in aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndrome patients before and after six months of immunosuppressive therapy. One microRNA, mir-126-5p, was negatively correlated with a response to therapy in aplastic anemia: patients with higher relative expression of miR-126-5p at diagnosis had the shortest progression-free survival compared to those with lower or normal levels. Our findings suggest utility of exosomal microRNAs in the differential diagnosis of bone marrow failure syndromes. (Registered at
