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

backgroundCardiac fibroblasts differentiation plays a critical role in cardiac remodeling and failure, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are still poorly understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) had been identified as important regulators during cell differentiation. The aim of the present study was to screen the miRNAs involved in regulation of cardiac fibroblasts differentiation.

methodsThe differentiation of rat cardiac fibroblasts into myofibroblasts was induced by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). Small RNA sequencing was then applied to detect the differentially expressed miRNAs.

resultsA total of 450 known miRNAs were detected, and 127 putative novel miRNAs were predicted by miRDeep2 analysis. DEGseq analysis and qRT-PCR confirmed that 24 known miRNAs were differentially expressed in TGF-β1-induced cardiac fibroblasts, including three up-regulated miRNAs and 21 down-regulated miRNAs. After miRNAs target genes prediction by miRanda algorithm, pathway analysis showed that these potential target genes were involved in Calcium signaling pathway, Type II diabetes mellitus, and Glutamatergic synapse pathway, etc. Meanwhile, seven putative miRNAs were also detected differentially expressed during TGF-β1-induced cardiac fibroblasts differentiation.

conclusionsThese differentially expressed miRNAs might play critical roles in cardiac fibroblasts differentiation. Altered expression of miRNAs may yield new insights into the underlying mechanisms of cardiac fibrosis and provide novel mechanism-based therapeutic strategies for cardiac fibrosis.
