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

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease characterized by degradation of the articular cartilage and joint inflammation. Studies have revealed the importance of microRNAs in the regulation of chondrocyte apoptosis. MicroRNA deep sequencing of control and osteoarthritic cartilage has revealed that miR-10a-5p is significantly upregulated in osteoarthritic tissues. However, its role in these tissues remains unknown. The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of miR-10a-5p in promoting OA. miR-10a-5p expression was increased in chondrocytes after interleukin-1β treatment in vitro. Transfection with a miR-10a-5p inhibitor abrogated interleukin-1β-induced apoptosis. A luciferase activity assay showed that miR-10a-5p targeted the 3' UTR of the homeobox gene HOXA1, inhibiting its expression. Treatment with HOXA1 siRNA reversed the rescuing effect of the miR-10a-5p inhibitor on chondrocyte apoptosis. Additionally, an OA model was established in mice by anterior cruciate ligament transection. AntagomiR-10a-5p improved the cartilage surfaces of osteoarthritic mice, whereas agomiR-10a-5p worsened them. A terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling assay indicated reduced apoptosis and increased HOXA1 expression in osteoarthritic mice after miR-10a-5p knockdown. These findings reveal a novel mechanism regulating OA progression and demonstrate the potential of miR-10a-5p and homeobox protein HOXA1 as therapeutic targets.
