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

objectiveTo perform a comprehensive multicompartment analysis of microRNA (miRNA) expression in multiple sclerosis (MS) linked to disease activity and compared with other neuroinflammatory diseases through a retrospective cross-sectional study.

methodsOne hundred twenty-seven miRNAs were measured by PCR arrays on pooled CSF, serum, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples of 10 patients with relapsing MS and 10 controls. Sixty-four miRNAs were then measured by quantitative PCR on individual CSF samples of patients with relapsing or remitting MS and controls (n = 68). Fifty-seven miRNAs were analyzed in the CSF from a second cohort (n = 75), including patients with MS, neuroinfectious, or neuroinflammatory diseases and controls. MiRNAs significantly dysregulated in the CSF were analyzed on individual serum/PBMC samples (n = 59/48) of patients with relapsing or remitting MS and controls. Post hoc analysis consisted of principal component analysis (PCA), gene set, and pathway enrichment analysis.

resultsTwenty-one miRNAs were differentially expressed, mainly upregulated in the CSF during MS relapses. Relapsing MS and neuroinfectious/inflammatory diseases exhibited a partially overlapping CSF miRNA expression profile. Besides confirming the association of miR-146a-5p/150-5p/155-5p with MS, 7 miRNAs uncharacterized for MS emerged (miR-15a-3p/124-5p/149-3p/29c-3p/33a-3p/34c-5p/297). PCA showed that distinct miRNA sets segregated MS from controls and relapse from remission. In silico analysis predicted the involvement of these miRNAs in cell cycle, immunoregulation, and neurogenesis, but also revealed that the signaling pathway pattern of remitting MS is more akin to controls rather than patients with relapsing MS.

conclusionsThis study highlights the CSF-predominant dysregulation of miRNAs in MS by identifying a signature of disease activity and intrathecal inflammation among neuroinflammatory disorders.
