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

Decreased DJ-1 protein impairs antioxidative activity of neurons and plays an important role in the occurrence of Parkinson's disease (PD). We have previously identified hsa-miR-4639-5p as the post-transcriptional regulator of DJ-1. Increased expression of hsa-miR-4639-5p reduced DJ-1 level and increased oxidative stress leading to neuronal death. Therefore, understanding the detailed mechanisms by which hsa-miR-4639-5p expression is regulated will not only facilitate diagnosis but also inform the pathogenesis of PD. We examined hsa-miR-4639-5 in either the plasma or exosomes derived from the central nervous system (CNS) neurons of PD patients and healthy controls. We showed that CNS-derived exosomes gave rise to the increased plasma hsa-miR-4639-5p in PD patients, pointing to hsa-miR-4639-5p dysregulation in the brain of PD patients. Using a dual-luciferase assay and a CRISPR-Cas9 system, we identified a core promoter of hsa-miR-4639 (-560 to -275 upstream the transcriptional starting site) of the gene for myosin regulatory light chain interacting protein. A polymorphism in the core promoter (rs760632 G>A) could enhance hsa-miR-4639-5p expression and increase PD risk. Furthermore, using MethylTarget™ assay, ChIP-qPCR, and specific inhibitors, we demonstrated that hsa-miR4639-5p expression was regulated by HDAC11-mediated histone acetylation but not DNA methylation/demethylation. Taken together, our study provides evidence that hsa-miR-4639-5p is a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for PD. Interventions targeting hsa-miR-4639-5p might represent a novel therapy to promote healthy aging.
