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

purposeOnly a fraction of low-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) progresses to high-grade CIN; however, the biological processes that differentiate progressive CIN from CIN that resolves naturally are poorly understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important epigenetic regulators of gene expression and thus, miRNA expression profiling can reveal the dysregulated biology underlying disease processes. The purpose of this case-control study was to reveal miRNA expression patterns and predict the underlying biological pathways that are associated with clinical outcomes of low-grade CIN.

methodsWomen with low-grade CIN diagnosis and definitive clinical outcomes (n = 51) were identified retrospectively using electronic clinical records. Comprehensive miRNA expression profiling was performed on the low-grade CIN diagnostic cervical biopsies retrieved from pathology archives. Differential miRNA expression was analyzed by comparing women with CIN that progressed to women with CIN that resolved naturally.

resultsDifferential expression of 29 miRNAs was observed in low-grade CIN that progressed to high-grade compared to low-grade CIN that resolved. Of these, 24 were significantly downregulated in progressive CIN, including miR-638, miR-3196, miR-4488, and miR-4508, while 5 miRNAs, including miR-1206a, were significantly upregulated. Computational gene ontology analysis based on the discovered miRNAs and their putative mRNA targets revealed biological processes associated with oncogenic phenotypes.

conclusionDistinct miRNA expression profiles are associated with clinical outcomes of low-grade CIN. The functional effects of the differentially expressed miRNAs may be biological determinants of CIN progression or resolution.
