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

MicroRNAs as a novel class of endogenous small non-coding RNAs, modulate negative gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Our previous work has demonstrated that miR-29a reduces PTEN expression by directly targeting the 3'-UTRs (untranslated regions) of its mRNA, thus promoting neurite outgrowth. To further confirm the role of miR-29a in the recovery of SCI and its potential mechanisms, a recombinant lentiviral vector was used to promote miR-29a expression in the injured spinal cord. As compared with the LV-eGFP group and normal saline group, a significantly increased level of miR-29a expression and a markedly decreased level of PTEN expression were observed in the LV-miR-29a group. Overexpression of miR-29a increased the phosphorylation of two proteins (Akt and S6) of PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway and the expression of axonal regeneration associated key marker protein (neurofiament-200). Moreover, quantitative imaging analysis was performed to confirm that LV-miR-29a group expressed axonal regeneration at 4.0 ± 0.2-fold as much as the other two groups. Besides, miR-29a overexpression promoted hindlimb motor functional recovery. Collectively, these results suggested that miR-29a may be an important regulator for axon regeneration, and a potential therapeutic target for SCI recovery.
