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
backgroundThe present study focused on the potential clinical significance of miR-3934 in the occurrence and development of asthma.
methods80 asthma and 80 healthy controls were recruited in this study. The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and serum samples of the asthma patients as well as the healthy controls were isolated, and the expression levels of miR-3934 in PBMCs were examined by RT-qPCR methods. Furthermore, the relationship between the level of miR-3934 in PBMCs and the disease severity has been analyzed, and the potential diagnostic value of miR-3934 was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. Finally, the expression level of IL-6, IL-8, and IL-33 have been detected using the ELISA kits, and Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between the level of miR-3934 in PBMCs and the serum expression of those inflammatory cytokines in asthma patients.
resultsmiR-3934 was dramatically decreased in PBMCs of the asthma patients, and miR-3934 was markedly reduced in PBMCs of patients with severe asthma vs. mild asthma. Furthermore, ROC analysis showed that levels of miR-3934 in PBMCs can distinguish asthma patient, especially the severe asthma patients from the controls. Finally, the levels of miR-3934 in PBMCs were negatively correlated with the serum levels of IL-6, IL-8, and IL-33 in asthma patients, respectively.
conclusionsmiR-3934 was downregulated in PBMCs of asthmatic patients and may function as a potential diagnosis biomarker.
