Circulation microRNA expression profiles in patients with complete responses to chemoradiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Article in Non-coding RNA research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is endemic cancer in Southeast Asia with a relatively poor prognosis. Chemoradiotherapy is a primary treatment that advantages certain patients, particularly in the early stages. New predictive and prognostic biomarkers are required to guide and select the best treatment. Aims: To evaluate the circulation expression profile of microRNAs (miRNAs) associated with responses to chemoradiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods: Peripheral blood from 17 patients was collected before and after chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Differential expression circulating miRNAs were analyzed using microRNA Cancer Panels and were compared among patients with complete responses. Differential expression analysis using GenEx 7 Multid, statistic represented by GraphPad Prism 9. Alterations mechanism signaling pathways and biological function using IPA (Ingenuity Pathways Analysis). Results: Using microRNAs Cancer Plate consisting of 116 miRNAs, we identified ten circulating miRNAs that were differentially expressed in NPC patients after chemoradiotherapy. Unsupervised clustering and confirmation using qRT-PCR showed that miR-483-5p, miR-584-5p, miR-122-5p, miR-7-5p, miR-150-5p were overexpressed and miRNA are miR-421, miR-133a-3p, miR-18a-5p, miR-106b-3p, miR-339-5p were significantly downregulated after chemoradiotherapy (p < 0.0001). In addition, ROC analysis through AUC (Area Under Curve) with 99% confidence interval (CI) p value < 0.0001. Gene enrichment analysis of microRNAs and the targeted proteins revealed that the main involved pathways for chemoradiotherapy in NPC were cell death and survival signaling pathways. Conclusion: qPCR profiling in circulating blood compared before and after chemoradiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma can identify pathways involved in treatment responses. miR-483-5p, miR-584-5p, miR-122-5p, miR-7-5p, miR-150-5p, miR-421, miR-133a-3p, miR-18a-5p, miR-106b-3p, miR-339-5p are differentially regulated after chemoradiotherapy in NPC.
