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

Nowadays, increasing number of microRNAs are found to have crucial roles in various physiological processes through gene expression regulation via RNA silencing as a result of base pairing with complementary mRNA sequences. To reveal the spatial distribution of microRNA expression in tissues, in situ hybridisation is the only method developed to date. This work aims to provide a novel approach to obtain information on the possible involvement of microRNA-s in regulatory processes under experimental conditions by enhancing fluorescent detection of microRNA labelling. Developing Wistar rats were used as a model system to analyse retinal microRNA expression in the first 3 postnatal weeks. Using cryosections, the crucial elements of optimal labels were (1) the concentration and duration of proteinase K treatment, (2) hybridisation temperature of microRNA probes and (3) temperature of stringency washes. Further improvements made possible to combine our in situ hybridisation protocol with double-label immunofluorescence allowing for the simultaneous detection of microRNA-s with high sensitivity and a neuronal cell marker and/or a synaptic marker protein. Thus, the regulatory microRNA-s can be localised in an identified cell type along with its potential target protein. We believe that our protocol can be easily adapted for a variety of tissues of different origins, developmental stages and experimental conditions.
