MiR-940 Serves as a Diagnostic Biomarker in Patients with Sepsis and Regulates Sepsis-Induced Inflammation and Myocardial Dysfunction.
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionSepsis is a heterogeneous syndrome with a life-long threat caused by infection. This study aimed to investigate the clinical function of miR-940 and its influence on cardiomyocyte models.
methodsThe relative expression of miR-940 was assessed by qRT-PCR and the roles in the clinical diagnosis of miR-940 were revealed by the ROC curve. The relationship between miR-940 and clinical parameters was validated by Pearson analysis. The sepsis rat models were established by treatment with cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) and clinical items including left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), left ventricular and end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), maximum rate of increase/decrease in left ventricular blood pressure (± dp/dt
resultsThe finding of qRT-PCR accentuated that the relative expression of miR-940 was significantly decreased in sepsis patients and CLP-stimulated models. The ROC curve proposed that miR-940 could be a satisfactory diagnostic biomarker for sepsis patients. Pearson analysis reinforced the expression of miR-940 was negatively associated with the PCT, WBC, CRP, Scr, SOFA score, and APACHE II score. The outcome of CLP-steered rat verified that overexpression of miR-940 inhibited the detrimental effects of CLP on myocardial dysfunction and inflammation reactions.
conclusionThe downregulation of miR-940 was reported and it might be an underlying diagnostic marker in sepsis patients. Overexpression of miR-940 protected myocardial function from damage and inflammation induced by CLP.
