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

Schwann cells switch to a repair phenotype following peripheral nerve injury and create a favorable microenvironment to drive nerve repair. Many microRNAs (miRNAs) are differentially expressed in the injured peripheral nerves and play essential roles in regulating Schwann cell behaviors. Here, we examine the temporal expression patterns of miR-29a-3p after peripheral nerve injury and demonstrate significant up-regulation of miR-29a-3p in injured sciatic nerves. Elevated miR-29a-3p inhibits Schwann cell proliferation and migration, while suppressed miR-29a-3p executes reverse effects. In vivo injection of miR-29a-3p agomir to rat sciatic nerves hinders the proliferation and migration of Schwann cells, delays the elongation and myelination of axons, and retards the functional recovery of injured nerves. Mechanistically, miR-29a-3p modulates Schwann cell activities via negatively regulating peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22), and PMP22 extensively affects Schwann cell metabolism. Our results disclose the vital role of miR-29a-3p/PMP22 in regulating Schwann cell phenotype following sciatic nerve injury and shed light on the mechanistic basis of peripheral nerve regeneration.
