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

backgroundExosomes are small (30-150 nm) membrane vesicles released by cells that transmit intercellular information. As one of the contents of exosomes, microRNAs (miRNAs) may play an important role in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). Exosomal miRNAs potentially function as biomarkers in AF, as shown in many other diseases.

methodsTo identify the different expression level of plasma exosomal miRNAs between persistent AF and sinus rhythm (SR) patients, we performed high-throughput sequencing of small RNAs in the exosomes of AF (n=4) and SR (n=4) patients. Target genes of the DE miRNAs were predicted and put into gene ontology analysis and pathway analysis. In the validation phase, we performed quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) of 6 of the DE miRNAs in AF (n=40) and SR (n=20) patients. Univariate and multivariate logistic analysis were used to analyze risk factors of AF.

resultsWith high-throughput sequencing, we revealed 39 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs in circulating exosomes. We validated 4 of the DE plasma exosomal miRNAs (miR-483-5p, miR-142-5p, miR-223-3p, miR-223-5p) using qRT-PCR. Univariate logistic analysis shows miR-483-5p, miR-142-5p, miR-223-3p are related with AF, while multivariate logistic analysis suggests miR-483-5p is independently in correlation with AF.

conclusionsThis discovery opens up a new perspective in the complicated mechanism underlying AF and the DE plasma exosomal miRNAs exert enormous potential of acting as biomarkers in assessing severity or prognostic of AF and help selecting therapeutic strategy.
