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

Rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) is thought to serve as a major vasomotor center that participates in controlling the progression of stress-induced hypertension (SIH). Circular RNAs (circRNAs) perform important functions in the regulation of diverse physiological and pathological processes. However, information concerning the functions of RVLM circRNAs on SIH remains limited. RNA sequencing was performed to profile circRNA expression in RVLMs from SIH rats, which were induced by electric foot shocks and noises. The functions of circRNA Galntl6 in reducing blood pressure (BP) and its potential molecular mechanisms on SIH were investigated via various experiments, such as Western blot and intra-RVLM microinjection. A total of 12,242 circRNA transcripts were identified, among which circRNA Galntl6 was dramatically downregulated in SIH rats. The upregulation of circRNA Galntl6 in RVLM effectively decreased the BP, sympathetic outflow, and neuronal excitability in SIH rats. Mechanistically, circRNA Galntl6 directly sponged microRNA-335 (miR-335) and restrained it to reduce oxidative stress. Reintroduction of miR-335 observably reversed the circRNA Galntl6-induced attenuation of oxidative stress. Furthermore, Lig3 can be a direct target of miR-335. MiR-335 inhibition substantially increased the expression of Lig3 and suppressed oxidative stress, and these favorable effects were blocked by Lig3 knockdown. CircRNA Galntl6 is a novel factor that impedes SIH development, and the circRNA Galntl6/miR-335/Lig3 axis represents one of the possible mechanisms. These findings demonstrated circRNA Galntl6 as a possibly useful target for the prevention of SIH.
