MicroRNA-dependent control of neuroplasticity in affective disorders.
Review in Translational psychiatry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Affective disorders are a group of neuropsychiatric disorders characterized by severe mood dysregulations accompanied by sleep, eating, cognitive, and attention disturbances, as well as recurring thoughts of suicide. Clinical studies consistently show that affective disorders are associated with reduced size of brain regions critical for mood and cognition, neuronal atrophy, and synaptic loss in these regions. However, the molecular mechanisms that mediate these changes and thereby increase the susceptibility to develop affective disorders remain poorly understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are small regulatory RNAs that repress gene expression by binding to the 3'UTR of mRNAs. They have the ability to bind to hundreds of target mRNAs and to regulate entire gene networks and cellular pathways implicated in brain function and plasticity, many of them conserved in humans and other animals. In rodents, miRNAs regulate synaptic plasticity by controlling the morphology of dendrites and spines and the expression of neurotransmitter receptors. Furthermore, dysregulated miRNA expression is frequently observed in patients suffering from affective disorders. Together, multiple lines of evidence suggest a link between miRNA dysfunction and affective disorder pathology, providing a rationale to consider miRNAs as therapeutic tools or molecular biomarkers. This review aims to highlight the most recent and functionally relevant studies that contributed to a better understanding of miRNA function in the development and pathogenesis of affective disorders. We focused on in vivo functional studies, which demonstrate that miRNAs control higher brain functions, including mood and cognition, in rodents, and that their dysregulation causes disease-related behaviors.
