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

Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAD) is a chronic disease caused by multiple risk factors. Aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been regarded as an independent risk factor of CAD. This study evaluated lncRNA myocardial infarction-associated transcription (MIAT) expression in CAD patients and its clinical significance. Totally, 155 CAD patients and 76 non-CAD controls were enrolled. MIAT expression was detected using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The clinical diagnostic significance of MIAT was evaluated by plotting the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The levels of inflammatory cytokines were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. microRNA (miR)-29b-3p expression and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPPA) level were detected. MIAT expression in CAD patients (4.23 [1.22-6.50]) was higher than that in non-CAD controls (1.64 [0.05-2.93]) (p < 0.01) and had an independent correlation with CAD. The area under ROC curve of predicting CAD was calculated as 0.790, the specificity as 71.40%, and the sensitivity as 70.00%. MIAT expression was positively correlated with the C-reactive protein level (r = 0.769, p < 0.0001) and pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and IL-8 levels, while negatively correlated with the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. MIAT was positively correlated with Gensini score and had an independent correlation with it. LncRNA MIAT sponged miR-29b-3p and miR-29b-3p targeted PAPPA. In conclusion, lncRNA MIAT was upregulated in the peripheral blood of CAD patients and elicited clinical diagnostic significance. MIAT participated in the development of CAD via miR-29b-3p/PAPPA axis. This study provides insights into a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of CAD.
