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

methodsDifferential expression of five selected miRNAs (hsa-mir-1225-3p, hsa-mir-1238, hsa-miR-3162-3P, hsa-miR-4721, and hsa-miR-H7) was verified by qRT-PCR in the plasma of 83 patients and 20 healthy controls. The relative expression of these miRNAs was analyzed in different groups to screen target miRNA. A logistic regression analysis was performed to assess factors associated with fibrosis progression. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and discriminant analyses validated the ability of these predicted variables to discriminate the nonsignificant liver fibrosis group from the significant liver fibrosis group. Furthermore, the established models were compared with other prediction models to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency.

resultsThese five tested miRNAs all had signature correlations with hepatic fibrotic level (

conclusionsIt was validated that the combination of these five miRNAs was a new set of promising molecular diagnostic markers for liver fibrosis. The diagnosis model (miR-5) can distinguish significant and nonsignificant liver fibrosis with high sensitivity and specificity.
