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

Early in gestation, wounds in fetal skin heal by regeneration, in which microRNAs play key roles. Seq-915_x4024 is a novel microRNA candidate confirmed by deep sequencing and mirTools 2.0. It is highly expressed in fetal keratinocytes during early gestation. Using an in vitro wound-healing assay, Transwell cell migration assay, and MTS proliferation assay, we demonstrated that keratinocytes overexpressing seq-915_x4024 exhibited higher proliferative activity and the ability to promote fibroblast migration and fibroblast proliferation. These characteristics of keratinocytes are the same biological behaviors as those of fetal keratinocytes, which contribute to skin regeneration. In addition, seq-915_x4024 suppressed the expression of the pro-inflammatory markers TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 and the pro-inflammatory chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL5. We also demonstrated that seq-915_x4024 regulates TGF-β isoforms and the extracellular matrix. Moreover, using an in vivo wound-healing model, we demonstrated that overexpression of seq-915_x4024 in keratinocytes suppresses inflammatory cell infiltration and scar formation. Using bioinformatics analyses, luciferase reporter assays, and western blotting, we further demonstrated that Sar1A, Smad2, TNF-α, and IL-8 are direct targets of seq-915_x4024. Furthermore, the expression of phosphorylated Smad2 and Smad3 was reduced by seq-915_x4024. Seq-915_x4024 could be used as an anti-fibrotic factor for the treatment of wound healing.
