The role of bone marrow microRNA (miR) in erythropoietic dysfunction after severe trauma.
Observational study in Surgery, 2021. 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
backgroundPrevious data has shown that severe traumatic injury is associated with bone marrow dysfunction, which manifests as persistent injury-associated anemia. This study sought to identify whether the expression of erythropoiesis-related microRNAs were altered in the bone marrow of trauma patients to determine if these microRNAs play a role in persistent injury-associated anemia.
methodsBone marrow was collected from severely injured trauma patients who underwent fracture fixation as well as patients who underwent elective hip replacement. There were 27 trauma patients and 10 controls analyzed. Total RNA and microRNA were isolated from CD34-positive cells using the RNeasy Plus Mini kit, and genome-wide microRNA expression patterns were assayed. Genes with significant expression differences were found using BRB-ArrayTools with a significance of P < .01.
resultsThere were marked differences in expression of 108 microRNAs in the trauma group when compared with hip replacement patients. Four of these microRNAs play a role in regulating erythropoiesis: microRNA-150, microRNA-223, microRNA15a, and microRNA-24. These microRNAs were all upregulated significantly, with trauma/hip replacement fold changes of 1.7, 1.8, 1.2, and 1.2 respectively, and all act to suppress or regulate erythropoiesis.
conclusionAssessment of the bone marrow microRNA profile in trauma patients compared to those undergoing elective hip replacement revealed the differential expression of microRNA-150, microRNA-223, microRNA-15a, and microRNA-24. These microRNAs all play a role in decreased erythroid progenitor cell growth and provide important insight to the erythropoietic dysfunction seen after trauma.
