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

Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is an endocrine disease caused by congenital thyroid hormone (TH) deficiency. MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) have been reported to inhibit the progression of congenital hypothyroidism. However, the expression and role of miR-1236-3p in CH remains unclear. To address this, 12 day old Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups: Control; Congenital hypothyroidism (CH), miR-1236-3p inhibitor control (inhibitor control); miR-1236-3p inhibitor (inhibitor); and miR-1236-3p inhibitor + translationally-controlled tumor protein 1 (TPT1)-small interfering (si)RNA (inhibitor + siRNA). Propylthiouracil (50 mg/day) was injected intraperitoneally into pregnant rats to generate pups with CH. The levels of miR-1236-3p and TPT1 were detected via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blot analysis. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to predict the targets of miR-1236-3p, which was confirmed using dual luciferase reporter assay. Flow cytometry and MTT assay were used to measure neuronal cell apoptosis and cell viability, whereas western blotting was applied to detect the expression of Pim-3, p-Bad (Ser112), Bad and Bcl-xL, proteins associated with apoptosis. The results revealed that miR-1236-3p expression was significantly upregulated, whilst TPT1 expression was significantly downregulated in the hippocampus tissues of CH rats compared with the control group. TPT1 was confirmed as a target of miR-1236-3p. MiR-1236-3p inhibitor prevented hippocampal neuron apoptosis induced by CH induction, which was reversed by TPT1-siRNA transfection. In addition, following miR-1236-3p inhibitor transfection, neuronal cell apoptosis significantly reduced compared with the control group, which was accompanied by significantly increased expressions of Pim-3, p-Bad (Ser112) and Bcl-xL expression. These effects were reversed by TPT1-siRNA co-transfection. These results indicated that inhibition of miR-1236-3p expression inhibited neuron apoptosis
