Turning Data to Knowledge: Online Tools, Databases, and Resources in microRNA Research.
Article in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 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
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) provide a fundamental layer of regulation in cells. miRNAs act posttranscriptionally through complementary base-pairing with the 3'-UTR of a target mRNA, leading to mRNA degradation and translation arrest. The likelihood of forming a valid miRNA-target duplex within cells was computationally predicted and experimentally monitored. In human cells, the miRNA profiles determine their identity and physiology. Therefore, alterations in the composition of miRNAs signify many cancer types and chronic diseases. In this chapter, we introduce online functional tools and resources to facilitate miRNA research. We start by introducing currently available miRNA catalogs and miRNA-gateway portals for navigating among different miRNA-centric online resources. We then sketch several realistic challenges that may occur while investigating miRNA regulation in living cells. As a showcase, we demonstrate the utility of miRNAs and mRNAs expression databases that cover diverse human cells and tissues, including resources that report on genetic alterations affecting miRNA expression levels and alteration in binding capacity. Introducing tools linking miRNAs with transcription factor (TF) networks reveals miRNA regulation complexity within living cells. Finally, we concentrate on online resources that analyze miRNAs in human diseases and specifically in cancer. Altogether, we introduce contemporary, selected resources and online tools for studying miRNA regulation in cells and tissues and their utility in health and disease.
