Profiling the mRNA and miRNA in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells in Subjects with Active Tuberculosis.
Article in Infection and drug resistance, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
purposeTo identify candidate hub genes and miRNAs associated with active tuberculosis (ATB) and reveal the potential molecular mechanisms of disease progression. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe expression of mRNA and miRNA was evaluated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 4 ATB patients and 4 healthy donors (HD) using high throughput sequencing (HTS) and bioinformatics analysis. Moreover, differentially expressed miRNAs were validated with 35 ATB patients and 35 HDs using reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR).
resultsA total of 2658 significantly differentially expressed genes (DEG) including 1415 up-regulated genes and 1243 down-regulated genes were identified in the ATB group compared with HDs, and the DEGs enriched in immune-related pathways, especially in TNF signaling pathway, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways and tuberculosis. Additionally, 10 hub genes were acquired according to protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis of DEGs. Moreover, 26 differentially expressed miRNAs were found in ATB group compared with HDs. Furthermore, RT-qPCR results showed that hsa-miR-23a-5p (P=0.0106), hsa-miR-183-5p (P=0.0027), hsa-miR-193a-5p (P=0.0021) and hsa-miR-941(P=0.0001) were significantly increased in the ATB patients compared with HD group, and the hsa-miR-16-1-3p was significantly decreased (P=0.0032).
conclusionOur research provided a characteristic profile of mRNAs and miRNAs expressed in ATB subjects, and 10 hub genes related with ATB were found, which will contribute to explore the role of miRNAs and hub genes in the pathogenesis of ATB, and improve the ability of differential diagnosis and treatment for the disease.
