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

Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA), mainly exhibit extracellular matrix loss and condylar cartilage degradation, is the most common chronic and degenerative maxillofacial osteoarthritis; however, no efficient therapy for TMJ-OA exists due to the poor understanding of its pathological progression. MicroRNA (miR)-140-5p is a novel non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) that expressed in osteoarthritis specifically. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of miR-140-5p in TMJ-OA, primary mandibular condylar chondrocytes (MCCs) from C57BL/6N mice were treated with interleukins (IL)-1β or transfected with miR-140-5p mimics or inhibitors, respectively. The expression of matrix metallopeptidase (MMP)-13, miR-140-5p, nuclear factor (NF)-kB, Smad3 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β3 were examined by western blotting or quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The interaction between the potential binding sequence of miR-140-5p and the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) of Smad3 mRNA was testified by dual-luciferase assay. Small Interfering RNA of Smad3 (Si-Smad3) was utilized to further identify the role of Smad3 mediated by miR-140-5p. The data showed MMP13, miR-140-5p and NF-kB increased significantly in response to IL-1β inflammatory response in MCCs, meanwhile, Smad3 and TGF-β3 reduced markedly. Moreover, transfection of miR-140-5p mimics significantly suppressed the expression of Smad3 and TGF-β3 in MCCs, while miR-140-5p inhibitors acted in a converse manner. As the luciferase reporter of Smad3 mRNA observed active interaction with miR-140-5p, Smad3 was identified as a direct target of miR-140-5p. Additionally, the expression of TGF-β3 was regulated upon the activation of Smad3. Together, these data suggested that miR-140-5p may play a role in regulating mandibular condylar cartilage homeostasis and potentially serve as a novel prognostic factor of TMJ-OA-like pathology.
