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

objectivesLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical for posttranscriptional and transcriptional regulation in eukaryotic cells. However, data on lncRNA expression in the lesion epicentres of spinal tissues after acute traumatic spinal cord injury (ATSCI) are scarce. We aimed to identify lncRNA expression profiles in such centres and predict latent regulatory networks. MATERIALS AND

methodsHigh-throughput RNA-sequencing was used to profile the expression and regulatory patterns of lncRNAs, microRNAs and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in an ATSCI C57BL/6 mouse model. Chromosome distributions, open reading frames (ORFs), transcript abundances, exon numbers and lengths were compared between lncRNAs and mRNAs. Gene ontology, KEGG pathways and binding networks were analysed. The findings were validated by qRT-PCRs and luciferase assays.

resultsIntronic lncRNAs were the most common differentially expressed lncRNA. Most lncRNAs had <6 exons, and lncRNAs had shorter lengths and lesser ORFs than mRNAs. MiR-21a-5p had the most significant differential expression and bound to the differentially expressed lncRNA ENSMUST00000195880. The microRNAs and lncRNAs with significant differential expression were screened, and a lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA interaction network was predicted, constructed and verified.

conclusionsThe regulatory actions of this network may play a role in the pathophysiology of ATSCI. Our findings may lead to better understanding of potential ncRNA biomarkers and confer better therapeutic strategies for ATSCIs.
