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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are potent regulators of multiple biological processes. Previous studies have demonstrated that miR-146a-5p increases in normal mice during aging, while long-living Ames dwarf (df/df) mice maintain youthful levels of this miRNA. The aim of this study was to elucidate the involvement of miR-146a-5p in modulating cellular senescence and apoptosis in visceral adipose tissue of df/df mice and cultured pre-adipocytes. To test the effects of miR-146a-5p overexpression on visceral adipose tissue, wild-type, and df/df mice, were treated with miRNA-negative control-base and df/df were transfected with 4 or 8 µg/g of a miR-146a-5p mimetic, respectively. Effects of miR-146a-5p overexpression were also evaluated in 3T3-L1 cells cultured under high and normal glucose conditions. Treatment with miR-146a-5p mimetic increased cellular senescence and inflammation and decreased pro-apoptotic factors in visceral adipose tissue of df/df mice. The miR-146a-5p mimetic induced similar effects in 3T3-L1 cells cultivated at normal but not high glucose levels. Importantly, 3T3-L1 HG cells in high glucose conditions showed significantly higher expression of miR-146a-5p than 3T3-L1 grown in normal glucose conditions. These results indicate that miR-146a-5p can be a marker for cellular senescence. This miRNA represents one of the significant SASP factors that if not precisely regulated, can accentuate inflammatory responses and stimulate senescence in surrounding non-senescent cells. The role of miR-146a-5p is different in healthy versus stressed cells, suggesting potential effects of this miRNA depend on overall organismal health, aging, and metabolic state.
