miR-20a is upregulated in serum from domestic feline with PKD1 mutation.
Article in PloS one, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD), also known as autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by cysts in renal parenchyma. It is the most prevalent inherited disease of domestic cats. MicroRNAs (miRNAs or ncRNA) are short, noncoding, single-stranded RNAs that may induce PKD cytogenesis by affecting numerous targets genes as well as by directly regulating PKD gene expression. We compared the relative expression profile of miR-20a, -192, -365, -15b-5p, and -16-5p from plasma and serum samples of nine domestic cats with PKD1 mutation, detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and a control group (n = 10). Blood samples from cats with PKD1 mutation provide similar concentrations of microRNAs either from plasma or serum. Serum miR-20a is upregulated in PKD group with p < 0.005; Roc curve analysis showed an AUC of 90,1% with a cut-off value sensitivity of 77.8% and specificity of 100%. This data provides important information regarding renal miRNA expression in peripheral blood sampling.
