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.
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
Abnormal post-transcriptional modulations in inflammatory genes by microRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in human disorders including arthritis. In this study, we determined the effect of hsa-miR-125b-5p on interleukin (IL)-1β induced inflammatory genes in human osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes. Bioinformatics algorithms showed 3'untranslated region (3'UTR) of TRAF6 mRNA (NM_004620.3) has perfectly matched 'seed-sequence' for hsa-miR-125b-5p. Treatment of cells with IL-1β up-regulates TRAF6 mRNA and down-regulates hsa-miR-125b-5p expression. This negative correlation between TRAF6 and hsa-miR-125b-5p was verified by transfection with miR-125b mimic (pre-miR-125b). Moreover, transfection with miR-125b mimic caused marked inhibition of IL-1β-induced phosphorylation of p38-MAPK, JNK-MAPKs and ERK-MAPKs and also suppressed the nuclear levels of NF-κBp50, NF-κBp65 and inhibited the activation of IκBα. Furthermore, transfected chondrocytes with miR-125b mimic in the presence of IL-1β also showed marked inhibition in the secretion of several proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines and growth factors including IL-6, IL-8, INF-γ, TGF-β1, IGFBP-1 and PGDF-BB. Importantly, this transfection also significantly inhibited IL-1β- induced MMP-13 expression/production. In short, this study concludes that hsa-miR-125b-5p acts as a negative co-regulator of inflammatory genes including MMP-13 via targeting TRAF6/MAPKs/NF-κB pathway in human OA chondrocytes.
