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

introductionCircular RNAs (circRNAs) have recently been described as novel noncoding regulators of gene expression. They might have an impact on microRNA expression by their sponging activity. The detectability in blood of these RNA transcripts has been demonstrated in patients with cancer and cardiovascular disease. We tested the hypothesis that circulating circRNAs in blood of critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) at inception of renal replacement therapy may also be dysregulated and associated with patient survival.

methodsWe performed a global circRNA expression analysis using RNA isolated from blood of patients with AKI as well as controls. This global screen revealed several dysregulated circRNAs in patients with AKI. Most highly increased circRNA-array-based transcripts as well as expression of the circRNA target miR-126-5p were confirmed in blood of 109 patients with AKI, 30 age-matched healthy controls, 25 critically ill non-AKI patients, and 20 patients on maintenance hemodialysis by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.

resultsCirculating concentrations of 3 novel circRNAs were amplified in blood of patients with AKI and in controls.

conclusionCirculating concentrations of circRNAs in patients with AKI are detectable.
