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

backgroundMicroRNA (miRNA) expression in the serum of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients has been correlated with white matter (WM) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities. The expression levels and cellular specificity of the target genes of these miRNAs are unknown in MS brain.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to analyze and validate the expression of miRNAs, previously reported as dysregulated in sera of MS patients, in white-matter lesions (WMLs) of progressive MS brains.

methodsWe performed global miRNA expression profiling analysis in demyelinated WMLs of progressive MS brains (

resultsAmong the miRNAs that were significantly changed in WML tissues, 11 were similar to pathogenic and 12 were common to protective miRNAs previously identified in sera and correlating with WM MRI abnormalities. Importantly, the expression levels of 58% of the protective miRNAs (7 of 12) were decreased in MS lesions compared to surrounding normal-appearing tissue. Target genes of these miRNAs were also altered in MS lesions and queries of cell-specific databases identified astrocytes and microglia as the key cellular expressers of these genes in MS brains.

conclusionsWe identified miRNAs that correlate with MRI abnormalities in lesioned tissue from MS brains.
