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

The dysregulation of microRNAs plays a critical role in the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study aims to explore the functional significance of miR-326 in RA. The RT-qPCR results showed that miR-326 was downregulated in synovial tissues of RA patients and RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLS). We found that miR-326 could target and reduce the expression of inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (Id1). MTT assay and flow cytometry were conducted to explore the biological function of miR-326. Our data revealed that the upregulation of miR-326 suppressed cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in RA-FLS. In collagen-induced arthritis mice, intraarticular injection of lentivirus carrying miR-326 overexpression vectors could reduce the arthritis score and attenuate synovial inflammation and cartilage destruction. We also found that long non-coding RNA-Ewing sarcoma-associated transcript 1 (lncRNA-EWSAT1) was significantly increased in RA synovial tissues and RA-FLS. The RNA immunoprecipitation and RNA pull-down assay indicated that lncRNA-EWSAT1 directly bound and negatively regulated the expression of miR-326. Knockdown of lncRNA-EWSAT1 could upregulate miR-326 expression and attenuate its proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction effect in RA-FLS.  In conclusion, the lncRNA-EWSAT1/miR-326 axis might provide a novel therapeutic target in the treatment of RA.
