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

Preeclampsia (PE) is a multi-system disorder that is specific to human pregnancy. Inadequate oxygenation of uterus and placenta is considered as one of the leading causes for the disease. MicroRNA-210(miR-210) is one of the prime molecules that has emerged in response to hypoxia. The objective of this study was to determine miR-210 expression patterns in plasma from severe PE and mild PE patients, and how that affects the expression of miR-210 target genes. The expression levels of miR-210 were validated using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR in plasma of severe PE (15) and mild PE (15) patients in comparison to controls subjects (15) with normal pregnancy. Then, the association between miR-210 and its downstream genes was validated by using human miR-210 targets RT2 profiler PCR Array. Both the categories (mild and severe) showed significantly high miR-210 expression levels. Also out of the 84 hypoxia miR-210 associated genes screened using mRNA, 18 genes were found to be differentially expressed in severe PE whereas 16 genes in mild PE cases with varying magnitude. All the genes in both the PE groups were found downregulated in comparison to controls. These downregulated genes expressed in both the cases were shown to be participating in immunosuppression, apoptosis, cell growth, signaling, angiogenesis, DNA repair. This study provides novel data on the genes that work downstream of miR-210 and how dysregulated expression of miR-210 can affect their expression and in turn functioning which can be associated with PE risk and severity. This study is the very first to determine the effect of miR-210 expression levels on associated genes in plasma samples.
