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

MicroRNAs are small non-coding nucleic acids that are responsible for regulating the gene expression by binding to the coding region and 3' and 5' un-translated region of target messenger RNA. Approximately 70% of known microRNAs are expressed in the brain and increasing evidences demonstrate the possible involvement of microRNAs in Alzheimer's disease (AD) according to the statistics. The characteristic symptoms of AD are the progressive loss of memory and cognitive functions due to the deposition of amyloid β (Aβ) peptide, intracellular aggregation of hyperphosphorylated Tau protein, the loss of synapses, and neuroinflammation, as well as dysfunctional autophagy. Therefore, microRNA-mediated regulation for above-mentioned changes may be the potential therapeutic strategies for AD. In this review, the role of specific microRNAs involved in AD and corresponding applications are systematically discussed, including positive effects associated with the reduction of Aβ or Tau protein, the protection of synapses, the inhibition of neuroinflammation, the mitigation of aging, and the induction of autophagy in AD. It will be beneficial to develop effective targets for establishing a cross link between pharmacological intervention and AD in the near future.
