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

objectiveLow back pain (LBP) is the predominant cause of disc degeneration in patients, which brings serious social problems and economic burdens. Increasing evidence has indicated that intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is one of the most common causes triggering LBP. Accumulating evidence has shown that circRNAs are involved in the pathological process of IDD. Nevertheless, the circRNA-mediated IDD pathogenesis still remains unknown. This study explored the potential mechanism and functions of circ-FAM169A in NPCs.

methodsBioinformatics analysis was conducted to identify key circRNA, miRNA and mRNA and predict their potential role in IDD. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, western blot, qRT-PCR, and fluorescence

resultsHerein, we identified circ-FAM169A, which was dramatically up-regulated in degenerative nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues and negatively correlated with expression levels of miR-583. We constructed a circ-FAM169A-miR-583-mRNAs co-expression network and predicted circ-FAM169A-miR-583 pathway predominantly involved in extracellular matrix metabolism and cell apoptosis etc. FISH experiments confirmed circ-FAM169A and miR-583 co-existence in the cytoplasm of NPCs. Luciferase reporter assay illustrated that circ-FAM169A was directly bound to miR-583 and Sox9 was the directly target gene of miR-583. Additionally, miR-583 negatively regulated Sox9 mRNA and protein levels in NPCs.

conclusionFindings of this study indicated that circ-FAM169A-miR-583 pathway may play a significant role in the regulation of IDD, which will provide novel diagnostic biomarkers and develop effective treatment strategy of IDD diseases. THE TRANSLATIONAL POTENTIAL OF THIS ARTICLE: This study suggested that circ-FAM169A-miR-583 pathway may regulate NPCs apoptosis and extracellular matrix synthesis and catabolism by targeting Sox9. It provides a novel therapeutic target and strategy for IVDD diseases.
