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

backgroundRotator cuff tendinopathy (RCT) is a common musculoskeletal disorder in the shoulder, whose underlying mechanism is unknown. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the development of various diseases, but little is known about their potential roles in RCT.

methodsIn this study, we profiled lncRNAs and mRNAs involved in RCT in comparison with the normal tendon (NT) by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq), to identify potential therapeutic targets. Gene ontology (GO), Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway, competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA), and co-expression network construction were used to identify the potential functions of these RNAs. Three lncRNAs and three mRNAs were validated by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).

resultsIn total, 419 lncRNAs and 1,541 mRNAs were differentially expressed between the RCT and NT groups with a fold change of >2 and P of <0.01. The GO and KEGG pathway analyses showed that the differentially expressed mRNAs were mainly enriched in complement activation and involved in the citrate cycle. The ceRNA network showed the interaction of differentially expressed RNAs, comprising 139 lncRNAs, 126 mRNAs, and 35 miRNAs.

conclusionsWe preliminarily analyzed the profile of lncRNAs and mRNAs in RCT. The bioinformatic analysis revealed several potential therapeutic targets for RCT.
