Plasma exosomal miR-320d, miR-4479, and miR-6763-5p as diagnostic biomarkers in epithelial ovarian cancer.

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: Exosomal miRNA had been proved as the promising biomarkers for multiple cancers including epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). This study aimed to validate the diagnostic accuracy of exosomal miR-320d, miR-4479, and miR-6763-5p for EOC. Materials and methods: Exosomes isolated from the plasma by ultracentrifugation were verified using TEM, qNano and western blot. MiRNAs sequencing was used to screen out the differential exosomal miRNAs and miR-320d, miR-4479, and miR-6763-5p were selected as candidates, which were further verified by RT-qPCR in 168 healthy donors and 161 primary EOC patients. Besides, the diagnostic accuracy of these three exosomal miRNAs were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results: MiRNAs sequencing revealed 95 differential exosomal miRNAs between EOC patients and healthy donors. Subsequently, exosomal miR-320d, miR-4479, and miR-6763-5p were significantly down regulated in EOC patients compared with healthy controls and benign patients. More importantly, these three miRNAs could serve as circulating diagnostics biomarkers for EOC, possessing areas under the curve (AUC) of 0.6549, 0.7781, and 0.6834, respectively. Moreover, these three exosomal miRNAs levels were closely associated with lymph node metastasis, meanwhile exosomal miR-320d and miR-4479 expression was related to tumor stage. Conclusion: Exosomal miR-320d, miR-4479, and miR-6763-5p might serve as potential biomarkers for EOC.
