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

This systematic review aimed to establish the range and quality of clinical and preclinical evidence supporting the association of individual microRNAs, and the use of microRNA expression in the diagnosis and prognosis of ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke. Electronic databases were searched from 1993 to October 2021, using key words relevant to concepts of stroke and microRNA. Studies that met specific inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected for data extraction. To minimise erroneous associations, findings were restricted to microRNAs reported to change in more than two independent studies. Of the papers assessed, 155 papers reported a change in microRNA expression observed in more than two independent studies. In ischaemic studies, two microRNAs were consistently differentially expressed in clinical samples (miR-29b & miR-146a) and four were altered in preclinical samples (miR-137, miR-146a, miR-181b & miR-223-3p). Across clinical and preclinical haemorrhagic studies, four microRNAs were downregulated consistently (miR-26a, miR-126, miR-146a & miR-155). Across included studies, miR-126 and miR-146a were the only two microRNAs to be differentially expressed in clinical and preclinical cohorts following ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke. Further studies, employing larger populations with consistent methodologies, are required to validate the true clinical value of circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke.
