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

backgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can be used as competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to bind to microRNAs (miRNAs) to regulate gene expression. Previous studies have demonstrated that ceRNAs play an important role in the development of tumors. However, it is not clear whether the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network plays a role in androgenic alopecia (AGA).

methodsThe hair follicles of three AGA patients and three healthy individuals were collected for high-throughput whole transcriptome sequencing to screen for differentially expressed lncRNAs. Differentially expressed lncRNA target genes were subjected to databases to predict miRNA-mRNA and lncRNA-miRNA relationship pairs, and a ceRNA network was constructed using Cytoscape software. Relative expression was verified by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).

results84 lncRNAs were significantly differentially expressed between the hair follicles of AGA patients and those of healthy individuals; 30 were upregulated, and 54 were downregulated. The top 10 upregulated lncRNAs were ENST00000501520, ENST00000448179, ENST00000318291, ENST00000568280, ENST00000561121, ENST00000376609, ENST00000602414, ENST00000573866, ENST00000513358, and ENST00000564194. The top 10 downregulated lncRNAs were ENST00000566804, ENST00000561973, ENST00000587680, ENST00000569927, ENST00000340444, ENST00000424345, ENST00000589787, NR_024344, NR_073026, and NR_110001. The qRT-PCR validation results and receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that one upregulated lncRNA, LOXL1-AS1 (ENST00000564194), had the most significant clinical diagnostic potential. After further analysis, it was concluded that LOXL1-AS1 could be used as a sponge to target hsa-miR-5193, thereby regulating TP53 expression.

conclusionThe ceRNA network-regulating AGA was constructed through high-throughput sequencing. Our study also identified a key lncRNA that is possibly related to the AGA pathological process.
