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

backgroundNon-human primates (NHPs) are important models of medical research on obesity and cardiovascular diseases. As two of the most commonly used NHPs, cynomolgus macaque (CM) and African green monkey (AGM) own different capacities in lipid metabolism of which the mechanism is unknown. This study investigated the expression profiles of lipid metabolism-related microRNAs (miRNAs) in CM and AGM and their possible roles in controlling lipid metabolism-related gene expression.

methodsBy small RNA deep sequencing, the plasma miRNA expression patterns of CM and AGM were compared. The lipid metabolism-related miRNAs were validated through quantitative reverse-transcription (RT) polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Related-target genes were predicted by TargetScan and validated in Vero cells.

resultsCompared to CM, 85 miRNAs were upregulated with over 1.5-fold change in AGM of which 12 miRNAs were related to lipid metabolism. miR-122, miR-9, miR-185, miR-182 exhibited the greatest fold changes(fold changes are 51.2, 3.8, 3.7, 3.3 respectively; all P < 0.01). And 77 miRNAs were downregulated with over 1.5-fold change in AGM of which 3, miR-370, miR-26, miR-128 (fold changes are 9.3, 1.8, 1.7 respectively; all P < 0.05) were related to lipid metabolism. The lipid metabolism-related gene targets were predicted by TargetScan and confirmed in the Vero cells.

conclusionWe report for the first time a circulating lipid metabolism-related miRNA profile for CM and AGM, which may add to knowledge of differences between these two non-human primate species and miRNAs' roles in lipid metabolism.
