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

Asthma is the most common chronic disease of childhood, chronic airway inflammation; bronchial tissue fibrosis, is a pathological feature common to children asthma, and an emerging data has indicted that autophagy plays critical roles in airway inflammation and fibrosis-mediated airway remodeling. The aim of this study was to examine whether the antifibrotic effect of epithelial microRNAs (miRNAs) relies on regulating autophagy-mediated airway remodeling and to identify the factors involved and the underlying mechanisms. Our results showed miR-30a were downregulated in children with asthma and ovalbumin (OVA) mouse model in parallel with the upregulation of autophagy-related proteins; moreover, we observed miR-30a inhibited the autophagy by downregulated autophagy-related 5 (ATG5). Then, we observed that overexpression of miR-30a suppressed the fibrogenesis and autophagic flux which was stimulated by interleukin-33 (IL-33) in bronchial epithelial cells. In vivo experiments showed that miR-30a overexpression decreased airway remodeling by decreased autophagy. This study uncovered a previously unrecognized antifibrotic role of miR-30a in asthma, in IL-33-induced lung epithelial cells in vitro, and in a murine model of OVA-induced airway inflammation in vivo and explored the underlying mechanisms.
