Association of circulating miRNAS in patients with Alstrőm and Bardet-Biedl syndromes with clinical course parameters.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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: Patients with the rare syndromic forms of monogenic diabetes: Alström syndrome (ALMS) and Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) have multiple metabolic abnormalities, including early-onset obesity, insulin resistance, lipid disorders and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to determine if the expression of circulating miRNAs in patients with ALMS and BBS differs from that in healthy and obese individuals and determine if miRNA levels correlate with metabolic tests, BMI-SDS and patient age. Methods: We quantified miRNA expression (Qiagen, Germany) in four groups of patients: with ALMS (n=13), with BBS (n=7), patients with obesity (n=19) and controls (n=23). Clinical parameters including lipids profile, serum creatinine, cystatin C, fasting glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels, HbA1c values and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were assessed in patients with ALMS and BBS. Results: We observed multiple up- or downregulated miRNAs in both ALMS and BBS patients compared to obese patients and controls, but only 1 miRNA (miR-301a-3p) differed significantly and in the same direction in ALMS and BBS relative to the other groups. Similarly, 1 miRNA (miR-92b-3p) was dysregulated in the opposite directions in ALMS and BBS patients, but diverged from 2 other groups. We found eight miRNAs (miR-30a-5p, miR-92b-3p, miR-99a-5p, miR-122-5p, miR-192-5p, miR-193a-5p, miR-199a-3p and miR-205-5p) that significantly correlated with at least of the analyzed clinical variables representing an association with the course of the diseases. Conclusions: Our results show for the first time that serum miRNAs can be used as available indicators of disease course in patients with ALMS and BBS syndromes.
