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

backgroundAccumulating evidence supports the importance of noncoding RNAs and exosomes in coronary heart disease (CHD). However, exosomal-associated competing endogenous RNA- (ceRNA-) mediated regulatory mechanisms in CHD are largely unexplored. The present study aimed to explore exosomal-associated ceRNA networks in CHD.

methodsData from 6 CHD patients and 32 normal controls were downloaded from the ExoRBase database. CHD and normal controls were compared by screening differentially expressed mRNAs (DEMs), lncRNAs (DELs), and circRNAs (DECs) in serum exosomes. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) targeting DEMs were predicted using the Targetscan and miRanda databases, and miRNAs targeted by DELs and DECs were predicted using the miRcode and starBase databases, respectively. The biological functions and related signaling pathways of DEMs were analyzed using the David and KOBAS databases. Subsequently, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was established to screen out on which hub genes enrichment analyses should be performed, and a ceRNA network (lncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA) was constructed to elucidate ceRNA axes in CHD.

resultsA total of 312 DEMs, 43 DELs, and 85 DECs were identified between CHD patients and normal controls. Functional enrichment analysis showed that DEMs were significantly enriched in "chromatin silencing at rDNA," "telomere organization," and "negative regulation of gene expression, epigenetic." PPI network analysis showed that 25 hub DEMs were closely related to CHD, of which ubiquitin C (UBC) was the most important. Hub genes were mainly enriched in "cellular protein metabolic process" functions. The exosomal-associated ceRNA regulatory network incorporated 48 DEMs, 73 predicted miRNAs, 10 DELs, and 15 DECs. The LncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction axes (RPL7AP11/hsa-miR-17-5p/UBC and RPL7AP11/hsa-miR-20b-5p/UBC) were obtained from the network.

conclusionsOur findings provide a novel perspective on the potential role of exosomal-associated ceRNA network regulation of the pathogenesis of CHD.
