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

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterised by hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and insulin resistance. The role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA)-regulated pyroptosis in NAFLD development remains largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate whether NAFLD development is controlled by lncRNA growth-arrest specific transcript 5 (GAS5)/miR-28a-5p/membrane associated ring-CH-type finger 7 (MARCH7)-mediated pyroptosis using in vivo and in vitro models. First, GAS5 expression was decreased but miR-28a-5p expression was increased in the livers of NAFLD patients, high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice and leptin-deficient obese (Ob/Ob) mice. Furthermore, GAS5 suppressed while miR-28a-5p promoted NAFLD development, and overexpression of miR-28a-5p reversed the GAS5 overexpression-induced attenuation of NAFLD. Mechanistically, GAS5 served as a sponge of miR-28a-5p, and miR-28a-5p enhanced pyroptosis by targeting the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of the E3 ligase MARCH7 during NAFLD development. MARCH7 interacted with the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) protein, resulting in proteasomal degradation of NLRP3 to inhibit pyroptosis. As expected, MARCH7 knockdown abolished the miR-28a-5p knockdown-induced inhibition of NAFLD development, and the ubiquitin E3 ligase-inactive mutant (W589A/I556A) of MARCH7 failed to inhibit NAFLD development. In conclusion, GAS5 protected against NAFLD development by binding to miR-28a-5p, miR-28a-5p promoted NAFLD development by targeting MARCH7, and MARCH7 ameliorated NAFLD by suppressing NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis. The GAS5/miR-28a-5p/MARCH7/NLRP3 axis plays an important role in NAFLD progression, and it might be a biomarker for NAFLD.
