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 explore the expression of miR-204 in patients with Osteoarthritis (OA) and its effect on chondrocytes.

methodsCartilage tissues of patients with OA, and normal cartilage tissues of patients receiving emergent traumatic amputation were collected. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to quantify the expressions of miRNAs. Chondrocytes of patients with OA were isolated, cultured, and transfected with miR-204 mimics or miR-204 inhibitor, and cell models of over-expression and knockdown of miR-204 were constructed. MTT assay, clone formation test, trypan blue staining, and TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL) staining were used to detect the effect of overexpression or knockdown of miR-204 on viability, proliferation, survival rate and apoptosis of chondrocytes.

resultsmiR-204 expression increased significantly in cartilage tissue of patients with OA. Results of MTT assay, clone formation test, and trypan blue staining showed that the over-expression of miR-204 inhibited the viability, proliferation, and survival rate, as well as promoted the apoptosis of chondrocytes. Whereas the knockdown of miR-204 improved the viability, proliferation, and survival rate of chondrocytes.

conclusionThe expression of miR-204 increased significantly in patients with OA and played a damaging role in chondrocytes. The knockdown of miR-204 may provide new approaches for clinical treatment of OA.
