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

introductionTo determine the microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles in the plasma of acute gouty arthritis (AGA) patients and investigate the effects of colchicine and etoricoxib treatment on the differential expression of miRNAs. MATERIAL AND

methodsExiqon miRCURYLNA microRNA Array was used for miRNA expression profiling in AGA. Two of the 21 differentially expressed miRNAs were confirmed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). A randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled design was used to divide 160 AGA patients into colchicine and etoricoxib groups. Changes in 2 differentially expressed miRNAs, interleukin-1 (IL-1) β, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and joint pain scores were detected.

resultsCompared with normal subjects and asymptomatic hyperuricemia (HUA) patients, plasma of AGA contained 21 differentially expressed miRNAs. qRT-PCR indicated specific downregulation of miR-223-3p and miR-451a in AGA. There were no statistically significant differences in the baseline characteristics between colchicine and etoricoxib groups. Furthermore, no significant difference in joint pain scores after 5- and 10-day treatment were found between groups (

conclusionsIn AGA patients, 21 differentially expressed miRNAs were detected in the plasma. Colchicine could upregulate miR-223-3p and downregulate IL-1β in the plasma, while etoricoxib may treat AGA by upregulating miR-451a and downregulating COX-2.
