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

backgroundCircRNAs are noncoding RNA molecules that have recently been described and shown to regulate miRNA functionality. While recent studies have suggested such circRNAs to be associated with pain related diseases in humans, no comprehensive migraine-related circRNA profiles have been generated, and there is currently no clear understanding of whether they can serve as regulators of migraine pathology.

methodsWe initially conducted a circRNA microarray analysis of the plasma of migraine patients and healthy controls. Based upon these data, we then selected 8 differentially expressed circRNAs and confirmed their expression in more migraine patient plasma samples via real-time PCR. We then performed functional and pathway enrichment analyses. Lastly, using a robust rank aggregation approach, we constructed a ceRNA network according to predicted circRNA-miRNA and miRNA-mRNA pairs in these migraine patient samples.

resultsWe were able to detect 2039 circRNAs in our patient samples, with 794 of 1245 these circRNAs being up- and downregulated in migraine patients relative to controls, respectively (fold change ≥ 1.5,

conclusionsOur results offer new potential insights into the mechanistic basis of this condition and suggest that hsa_circRNA_000367 and hsa_circRNA_102413 may offer value as regulators of migraine pathology.
