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

Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are a novel group of small non-coding RNA molecules with lengths of 21-35 nucleotides, first identified from the germline. PiRNAs and their associated PIWI clade Argonaute proteins constitute a key part of the piRNA pathway, with the best-known biological function to silence transposable elements in germ cells. The piRNA pathway, in fact, is not exclusive to the germline. Somatic functions of piRNAs have been recorded since their first discovery. To date, involvement of the piRNA pathway has been identified within the biological functions of genome rearrangement, epigenetic regulation, protein regulation in the germline and/or the soma transcriptionally or post-transcriptionally. Emerging evidence has shown that the piRNA pathway is essential for the normal function of the cardiovascular system and that its abnormal expression is correlated with cardiovascular dysfunction, although comprehensive roles of the piRNA pathway in the cardiovascular system and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this review, we discuss current findings of piRNA pathway expression in cardiac cell types and their potential functions in cardiac differentiation, repair and regeneration, thus providing new insights into cardiovascular disease development associated with the piRNA pathway.
