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

backgroundIncreasing evidence demonstrates that by acting as microRNA sponges modulating gene expression at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level, circular RNAs (circRNAs) participate in the pathogenesis of a variety of diseases and are considered ideal biomarkers of human disease.

aimTo examine the expression of circRNA_103516 in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and its associations with clinical phenotypes and inflammatory cytokines.

methodsPeripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were obtained from patients with IBD, healthy controls (HCs), and patient controls (PCs). Expression of circRNA_103516 and hsa-miR-19b-1-5p was assessed by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI), Mayo score, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were measured. To assess the inflammatory cytokines tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), and interleukin-10 (IL-10), blood samples were analysed by flow cytometry.

resultsNinety Crohn's disease (CD) and 90 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, 80 HCs, and 35 PCs were included in the study. CircRNA_103516 was upregulated in CD and UC patients compared with HCs and PCs (

conclusionCircRNA_103516 levels in PBMCs can be considered an ideal candidate biomarker for diagnosing IBD. Dysregulation of circRNA_103516 may participate in the molecular mechanism of IBD through hsa-miR-19b-1-5p sponging.
