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

The current study mainly aimed to evaluate the expression and the potential mechanism of miR-29a-3p in the hearts of mice after cardiac ischemia reperfusion (CIR) injury. Quantitative PCR was carried out to assess the relative levels of miR-29a-3p in the hearts of a CIR injury mouse model. To the best of our knowledge, the current study is the first to show that the level of miR-29a-3p was significantly decreased in the hearts of CIR injury mouse models compared with that of sham controls. Moreover, the authors found that decreased miR-29a-3p levels enhanced the production of reactive oxygen species in cardiomyocytes. Meanwhile, the inhibition of miR-29a-3p induced substantial cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Further study showed that the inhibition of miR-29a-3p decreased the activation of Akt and p38, suggesting a stress-induced self-regulatory mechanism after CIR injury in primary cardiomyocytes. A dual luciferase assay and western blot analysis showed that Bax was a target gene of miR-29a-3p. The authors also measured the level of miR-29a-3p in the plasma of 100 acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients and found that circulating miR-29a-3p was significantly decreased in AMI patients. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that miR-29a-3p could be used to screen AMI patients from healthy controls. Hence, the authors of the current study propose that reduced miR-29a-3p levels in primary cardiomyocytes contribute to CIR injury-related apoptosis mainly by targeting Bax.
