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

Background: Ultrafiltration failure remains one of the most severe complications of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD), which results in death. This study aimed to characterize the circulating exosomal microRNA (miRNA) profiles associated with ultrafiltration failure and explore its underlying mechanisms. Methods: Exosomes were isolated from the peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) of patients with ultrafiltration failure or success using the ultracentrifugation method, and then transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and western blot were used for exosome characterization. After that, the isolated exosomes were sent for small RNA sequencing, and eight differentially expressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs) were chosen for RT-qPCR validation. Results: TEM, NTA, and western blot revealed that exosomes were successfully isolated. After sequencing, 70 DE-miRNAs involved in ultrafiltration were identified, including 41 upregulated ones and 29 downregulated ones. Functional analyses revealed that these DE-miRNAs were significantly enriched in pathways of cancer, ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis, axon orientation, and the Rap1 and Ras signaling pathways. In addition, the consistency rate of RT-qPCR and sequencing results was 75%, which indicated the relatively high reliability of the sequencing data. Conclusions: Our findings implied that these DE-miRNAs may be potential biomarkers of ultrafiltration failure, which would help us to discover novel therapeutic targets/pathways for ultrafiltration failure in patients with end-stage renal disease.
