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

backgroundThe clinical behaviors and cytogenetics of solitary uterine leiomyomas (SUL) and multiple uterine leiomyomas (MUL) vary, which greatly affects the choice of treatments for reproductive-aged patients with leiomyomas. Our previous study demonstrated that a series of microRNAs, including miR-146b-5p, are dysregulated and play important roles in the development of SUL and MUL. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can participate in the pathogenesis of several diseases by regulating the expression of microRNAs; however, their roles in regulating miR-146b-5b and in the pathology of leiomyomas are unclear.

methodsPair-matched uterine leiomyoma and adjacent normal myometrium tissue samples were collected from 37 patients with leiomyomas, including 15 with SUL and 22 with MUL. Six paired samples (three SUL and three MUL samples) were used for lncRNAs microarray analysis. Targeted lncRNAs were selected by bioinformatics analysis, and were verified by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Growth curve analysis and qRT-PCR were used to evaluate the effect of silencing the lncRNA lnc-AL445665.1-4 on cell proliferation and miR-146b-5p expression, respectively.

resultsThere were 245 up-regulated and 243 down-regulated lncRNAs in SUL, and 119 up-regulated and 447 down-regulated lncRNAs in MUL. Fifty-five of the selected lncRNAs were predicted to target miR-146b-5p, which is up-regulated in SUL and down-regulated in MUL. Four lncRNAs were selected after Venn diagram analysis showing common dysregulation in the three groups. Lnc-AL445665.1-4 was selected for further exploration. qRT-PCR showed that lnc-AL445665.1-4 expression was significantly up-regulated in MUL compared with SUL in an additional 12 and 19 paired SUL-normal and MUL-normal samples, respectively. The dual-luciferase reporter assay demonstrated the presence of binding sites on lnc-AL445665.1 for miR-146b-5p. Silencing lnc-AL445665.1-4 not only inhibited cell proliferation but also negatively regulated the expression of miR-146b-5p.

conclusionsOur results suggest that lnc-AL445665.1-4 may be involved in the development of MUL by interacting with miR-146b-5p. Further investigation of the roles of lncRNAs and miRNAs may help to optimize the clinical management of leiomyoma patients. Lnc-AL445665.1-4 could be a novel target for genetic therapy or serve as a biomarker for predicting the recurrence of MUL in patients that have undergone myomectomy.
