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

backgroundThe diagnosis of severe asthma (SA) is difficult due to a necessary long-term treatment history currently, while there are few studies on biomarkers in the diagnosis of SA. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) growth arrest specific-5 (GAS5) has the potential of playing this role because its binding with glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The purpose of this article is to explore the possibility of lncRNA GAS5 acting as a biomarker for early diagnosis of severe asthma (SA).

methodsPeripheral blood was obtained from healthy volunteers, patients with non-severe asthma (nSA) and SA, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated. Twenty-four female BALB/c mice (aged 6 weeks) were randomly and averagely divided into 3 groups, i.e., control group, asthma group and dexamethasone group. The mice were sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish a murine model of steroid-insensitive asthma. Human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) were cultured, transfected with miR-9 mimics, JNK1 inhibitor and treated with interleukin (IL)-2 + IL-4 and dexamethasone. Western blot was used to detect glucocorticoid receptor phosphorylation at serine 226 (GR

resultsThe level of GAS5 in PBMCs from nSA group elevated 20-fold higher after dexamethasone treatment

conclusionsThe expression of GAS5 is different in PBMCs between nSA and SA, and is affected by glucocorticoids treatment, which is due to GR
