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

We aimed to obtain microRNA (miRNA) profiles of patients with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) glaucoma or normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) compared to normal controls using individual aqueous humor (AH) samples and investigate the role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of PEX glaucoma compared to NTG in Korean. AH (80-120 µl) was collected before cataract surgery or trabeculectomy from 26 Korean subjects (eleven with PEX glaucoma, age-matched eight NTG, and seven controls). RNA sequencing was conducted for RNA samples extracted from 26 AH samples. Bioinformatics analysis was performed for targets and related pathways. A total of 334 and 291 discrete miRNAs were detected in AH samples of PEX glaucoma and NTG patients, respectively. Two significantly upregulated miRNAs (hsa-miR-30d-5p and hsa-miR-320a) and ten significantly downregulated miRNAs (hsa-miR-3156-5p, hsa-miR-4458, hsa-miR-6717-5p, hsa-miR-6728-5p, hsa-miR-6834-5p, hsa-miR-6864-5p, hsa-miR-6879-5p, hsa-miR-877-3p, hsa-miR-548e-3p, and hsa-miR-6777-5p) in PEX glaucoma patients compared to control (fold-change > 2, p < 0.05) were found. In NTG patients, ten significantly upregulated and two downregulated miRNAs compared to control were found. Only hsa-miR-6777-5p was commonly downregulated in both PEX glaucoma and NTG patients. Related pathways were proteoglycans in cancer, glioma, and TGF-beta signaling pathway in PEX glaucoma. These differentially expressed miRNAs between PEX glaucoma and NTG samples suggest the possible role of miRNA in the pathogenesis of glaucoma, further implying that pathogenic mechanisms may differ between different types of glaucoma.
