SARS-CoV-2 Mutations Lead to a Decrease in the Number of Tissue-Specific MicroRNA-Binding Regions in the Lung.
Article in Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 2023. 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
RNA interference in vertebrates acts as an antiviral mechanism only in undifferentiated embryonic stem cells and is mediated by microRNAs. In somatic cells, host microRNAs also bind to the genomes of RNA viruses, regulating their translation and replication. It has been shown that viral (+)RNA can evolve under the influence of host cell miRNAs. In more than two years of the pandemic, the SARS-CoV-2 virus has mutated significantly. It is quite possible that some mutations could be retained in the virus genome under the influence of miRNAs produced by alveolar cells. We demonstrated that microRNAs in human lung tissue exert evolutionary pressure on the SARS-CoV-2 genome. Moreover, a significant number of sites of host microRNA binding with the virus genome are located in the NSP3-NSP5 region responsible for autoproteolysis of viral polypeptides.
