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

introductionDiabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a common microvascular complication that affects 40% of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Emerging evidence suggests a role for several microRNAs (miRNAs) in the development of DKD. In this context, miR-15a-5p and miR-30e-5p have been shown to regulate the expression of the uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2), a mitochondrial protein that decreases reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation by the mitochondria. Since ROS overproduction is a key contributor to the pathogenesis of DKD, dysregulation of these two miRNAs could be involved in DKD pathogenesis. Thus, the aim of this study was to compare the expressions of miR-15a-5p and miR-30e-5p in type 1 DM (T1DM) patients with DKD (cases) and without this complication (controls), and to perform bioinformatics analyses to investigate their putative targets and biological pathways under their regulation.

methodsMiR-15a-5p and miR-30e-5p expressions were analyzed in plasma and urine of 17 T1DM controls and 23 DKD cases (12 with moderate DKD and 11 with severe DKD) using qPCR. Bioinformatics analyses were performed in Cytoscape software.

resultsMiR-30e-5p expression was downregulated in plasma of patients with moderate and severe DKD compared to T1DM controls. Moreover, this miRNA was also downregulated in urine of patients with severe DKD compared to the other groups. No difference was found in miR-15a-5p expression between groups. Bioinformatics analyses indicated that miR-30e-5p and miR-15a-5p regulate various genes that participate in pathways related to angiogenesis, apoptosis, cell differentiation, oxidative stress, and hypoxia.

conclusionMiR-30e-5p seems to be downregulated in plasma and urine of patients with DKD.
