Alterations of miRNA Expression in Diffuse Hyperplastic Perilobar Nephroblastomatosis: Mapping the Way to Understanding Wilms' Tumor Development and Differential Diagnosis.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Wilms' tumor (WT) is the most common renal malignancy in children. In diffuse hyperplastic perilobar nephroblastomatosis (DHPLN), nephrogenic rests result in a bulky enlargement of the kidney, a condition considered as a premalignant state before WT. Despite relevant clinical differences between WT and DHPLN, they are often challenging to distinguish based on histology. Molecular markers would improve differential diagnosis, but none are available at present. In our study, we investigated the potential of microRNAs (miRNAs) as such biomarkers, also aiming to shed light on the chronological order of expression changes. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from four DHPLN cases and adjacent healthy tissues were tested using a PCR array containing primers for 84 miRNAs implicated in genitourinary cancer. Expression in DHPLN was compared to WT data available in dbDEMC. Let-7, miR-135, miR-146a-5p, miR-182-5p, miR-183-5p, miR-20b-3p, miR-29b-3p, miR-195-5p and miR-17-5p showed potential to be used as biomarkers to distinguish WT and DHPLN in cases when traditional differential diagnosis is inconclusive. Our study also revealed miRNAs which may play a role in the initial steps of the pathogenesis (at a precancerous stage) and ones which become deregulated later in WT. More experiments are needed to confirm our observations and find new candidate markers.
