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

Behavior alterations in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) contribute to a pivotal role in pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). MiRNAs are closely involved in a variety of pathologic conditions. In the present study, we aimed to screen for the aberrant expression of miRNAs in rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLS) to further identify the altered expression of miR-26a-5p in RA-FLS and to investigate the role of miR-26a-5p in RA. The altered expression of miR-26a-5p in RA-FLS was screened by microarray analysis and confirmed by quantitative real time PCR. The effect of miR-26a-5p on proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, and invasion in RA-FLS were studied. The verification of miR-26a-5p target mRNA and downstream signaling pathway was elucidated by bioinformatics analysis, dual luciferase reporter assay, and western blot. Expression of miR-26a-5p was higher in RA-FLS than in fibroblast-like synoviocytes from osteoarthritis patients and trauma patients. Overexpression of miR-26a-5p RA-FLS promoted cells proliferation, G1/S transition, cells invasion, and resisted apoptosis in RA-FLS, whereas it led to contrary effects when inhibiting the expression of miR-26a-5p. The 3'UTR of tensin homolog (PTEN) was directly targetted by miR-26a-5p and activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway was observed when overexpression of miR-26a-5p. Our study suggested that miR-26a-5p has a complementary role in cells proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis of RA-FLS, which may be attributed to its activation effect on PI3K/AKT signaling pathway via targetting PTEN. MiR-26a-5p is likely to be a clinically helpful target for novel therapeutic strategies in RA.
