The association of plasma levels of miR-146a, miR-27a, miR-34a, and miR-149 with coronary artery disease.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
backgroundCoronary artery disease (CAD) is considered to be one of the most pivotal causes of death in the world. Over the past two decades, significant changes occurred in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of CAD, which has helped reduce mortality rates. microRNAs (miRs) are a class of more than 5000 non-encoding RNA molecules (21-25 nucleotides across the length) that regulate complex biological processes. Today, miRNAs are used to study cardiovascular diseases. In the present study, the expression of miR-146a،miR-27, miR-149, and miR-34a in plasma suffering from CAD and the control group were investigated. METHODS AND
resultsThe present research was performed on 30 men with CAD and 30 healthy men as controls. The expression levels of miR-146a, miR-27a, miR-149, and miR-34a in the plasma of patients with CAD and the control group were measured using real-time PCR. Also, the correlation between the expression of circulating miRs levels and biochemical LDL-C, HDL-C, BMI, and total cholesterol was evaluated. The expression of miR-27a in the plasma of the CAD group was higher than in the control group (p = 0.020). The expression of miR-146a was downregulated in CAD patients compared to normal subjects (p = 0. 026). However, the expression of miR-34a, miR-149 in the plasma of CAD patients was not significantly different with the control group. In addition to, a direct correlation was found between the expression of miR-146a and HDL-c, the expression of miR-27a and LDL-C and the expression of miR-34a and total cholesterol. Also, the negative correlation between expressions of miR-149 with BMI was reported.
conclusionThe obtained results demonstrated that miRs were closely related to biochemical factors and it points out the fact that miRNAs can be applied as a potential strategy for diagnosis and treatment of CAD.
