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

We investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of psoriasis to discover novel potential diagnostic markers and treatment targets. We screened Chinese Han individuals using gene chip technology to identify differentially expressed miRNAs in the epidermal tissue of lesions from patients with psoriasis versus that from healthy controls. We also used bioinformatics methods and molecular biology experiments to predict and verify target genes and signaling pathways that may have an underlying role in normal human epidermal keratinocyte (NHEK) proliferation. Differentially expressed miRNAs were found in the epidermal tissue of lesions from patients with psoriasis; 45 were upregulated, and 71 were downregulated. Among them, miR-320b was significantly downregulated. Low miR-320b expression levels in NHEKs promoted cell proliferation. The luciferase assay results showed that AKT3 is a target gene of miR-320b. The protein phosphorylation levels of STAT3 and SAPK/JNK in the intracellular signaling pathway were significantly upregulated by miR-320b downregulation. Our findings indicate that miR-320b negatively regulates NHEK proliferation by targeting AKT3 to regulate the STAT3 and SAPK/JNK signaling pathways and might participate in the pathogenesis of psoriasis in Chinese Han populations. miR-320b may also be a novel diagnostic marker or therapeutic target for this disease.
