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 present study aimed to explore the expression and clinical value of miR-532-5p in atherosclerosis (AS) patients, and analyze its regulating effect on biological behaviors of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).

methodsA total of 103 AS patients and 77 healthy controls were included. The expression level of miR-532-5p was measured using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was counted to assess the diagnostic value of miR-532-5p in AS. CCK-8 and Transwell assay were used to detect the role of miR-532-5p in VSMCs proliferation and migration.

resultsMiR-532-5p was downregulated in AS patients compared with that in healthy controls. Serum miR-532-5p was inversely related to the carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in AS patients. A ROC curve was conducted with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.897, with high sensitivity and specificity. Overexpression of miR-532-5p inhibited cell proliferation and migration in VSMCs, whereas miR-532-5p downregulation had a reverse effect.

conclusionsDecreased expression of miR-532-5p might be a potential diagnostic biomarker for AS. Overexpression of miR-532-5p inhibits the proliferation and migration of VSMCs. The present results indicate a therapeutic potential of miR-532-5p for AS.
