Loss of microRNA-30a and sex-specific effects on the neonatal hyperoxic lung injury.
Article in Biology of sex differences, 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
backgroundBronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is characterized by an arrest in lung development and is a leading cause of morbidity in premature neonates. It has been well documented that BPD disproportionally affects males compared to females, but the molecular mechanisms behind this sex-dependent bias remain unclear. Female mice show greater preservation of alveolarization and angiogenesis when exposed to hyperoxia, accompanied by increased miR-30a expression. In this investigation, we tested the hypothesis that loss of miR-30a would result in male and female mice experiencing similar impairments in alveolarization and angiogenesis under hyperoxic conditions.
methodsWild-type and miR-30a
resultsSignificantly, the sex-specific differences observed in WT mice were abrogated in the miR-30a
conclusionsmiR-30a could be one of the biological factors mediating the resilience of the female preterm lung to neonatal hyperoxic lung injury. A better understanding of the effects of miR-30a on pulmonary angiogenesis and alveolarization may lead to novel therapeutics for treating BPD.
