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 transposition of the great arteries (TGA) have different connected systemic chambers and this determines the long-term morbidities and survival. Limited findings have been reported to systematically identify miRNA and mRNA expression levels in such cohorts of patients. In this study, we aimed to characterize miRNAs, mRNAs, and miRNA-mRNA interaction networks in patients with TGA, with a systemic left (LV) and right ventricle (RV). Materials and methods: Large panel of human miRNA and mRNA microarrays were conducted to determine the genome-wide expression profiles in the blood of 16 TGA-RV patients, 16 TGA-LV patients, and 16 age and gender-matched controls. Using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), the differential expression level of a single miRNA was validated. Enrichment analyses of altered miRNA and mRNA expression levels were identified using bioinformatics tools. Results: Altered miRNA and mRNA expression levels were observed between TGA-RV and TGA-LV patients, together or separated, compared to controls. Among the deregulated miRNAs and mRNAs, 39 and 101 miRNAs were identified as significantly differentially expressed in patients with TGA (both TGA-RV and TGA-LV) and TGA-RV, when compared to matched controls. Furthermore, 51 miRNAs were identified as significantly differentially expressed in patients with TGA-RV when compared to patients with TGA-LV. RT-qPCR relative expression level was highly consistent with microarray analysis results. Similarly, 36 and 164 mRNAs were identified as significantly differentially expressed in patients with TGA (both TGA-RV and TGA-LV) and TGA-RV, when compared to matched controls. Additionally, miR-140-3p showed a higher expression level in patients with overt heart failure (FC = 1.54; Conclusion: Our findings provide new insights into a potential molecular biomarker(s) for patients with TGA that may guide better risk stratification and the development of novel targeting therapies. Future studies are needed to investigate the potential significance of miRNAs and mRNAs in TGA-related cardiovascular diseases.
