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

The aim of the present study was to characterize the roles of two microRNAs (miRNAs), miR‑122 and miR‑199, in oral lichen planus (OLP). miRNA microarray analysis was performed to detect potential miRNAs involved in OLP, while in‑silicon analysis, reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR), western blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses were utilized to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the roles of miR‑199 and miR‑122 in OLP. The results from the microarray and RT‑qPCR analyses demonstrated that the expression levels of miR‑122 and miR‑199 were significantly decreased in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from the OLP group compared with the control group. In addition, miR‑122 and miR‑199 directly targeted AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT1) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), respectively, by binding to their 3' UTRs. AKT1 and mTOR were highly expressed in PBMCs derived from OLP patients. In fact, a negative regulatory relationship was observed between miR‑122 and AKT1, and between miR‑199 and mTOR, with negative correlation coefficients of ‑0.41 and ‑0.51, respectively. Furthermore, the protein levels of AKT1, mTOR and microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3β (LC3B) were upregulated in the OLP group compared with the control group. Finally, overexpression of miR‑122 inhibited the expression of AKT1 and LC3B, while overexpression of miR‑199 reduced the levels of mTOR and LC3B. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that miR‑199 and miR‑122 are implicated in the pathogenesis of OLP by regulating the expression of mTOR and AKT1.
