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

backgroundPeriodontitis is the second most common dental disease worldwide. TNF-α is up-regulated in periodontal disease and induces inflammation and cell apoptosis in gingival epithelial cells (GECs). miRNAs/mRNA axis play an important role in cell progression and inflammation. However, studies on the pathogenesis of periodontitisare still scarce, especially in the regulation mechanism of miRNAs.

methodsThe expression and protein level of miR-16-5p, miR-145-5p, BACH2, and caspase 3 were determined by quantitative real time PCR and western blot, respectively. Cell viability was measured by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. Dual-luciferase assay was applied to verify miR-16-5p and miR-145-5p target to the 3'UTR of BACH2.

resultsTNF-α induced miR-16-5p, miR-145-5p and caspase 3 expression, inhibited cell viability, promoted cell apoptosis in GECs. However, down-regulated miR-16-5p and miR-145-5p can restore the effects of TNF-α on GECs. In addition, dual-luciferase assay determined that BACH2 was a common target of miR-16-5p and miR-145-5p. Knockdown of BACH2 induced GECs apoptosis. Of note, cell apoptosis induced by miR-16-5p mimic, miR-145-5p mimic, and TNF-α was significantly reversed by up-regulating BACH2.

conclusionmiR-16-5p and miR-145-5p mediate apoptosis induced by TNF-α in human gingival epithelial cells by targeting BACH2.
