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

introductionSmoking is an independent risk factor for the formation and rupture of intracranial aneurysms (IA). However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

methodsIn this study, we performed miRNA sequencing on plasma from 10 smoking patients with IA, 10 non-smoking patients with IA, and 10 healthy controls. The differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs) between smoking and non-smoking patients with IA were identified. Functional and pathway enrichment analysis is employed to investigate the potential functions of those DE miRNA target genes. The correlations with the clinical parameters were assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis.

resultsIn total, we identified 428 DE miRNAs. Functional enrichment analysis showed the target genes were significantly enriched in biological aspects related to cell characteristics, such as cell cycle, cell differentiation, and cell migration. Pathway analysis showed DE miRNAs mainly enriched in the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, Focal adhesion, and JAK-STAT signaling pathway. The expressions of miR-574-5p, miR-151a-3p, and miR-652-3p correlated well with aneurysm parameters. The AUC of miR-574-5p, miR-151a-3p, and miR-652-3p were 97%, 92%, and 99%, respectively.

conclusionOur study indicated that smoking significantly altered the plasma miRNA profile in patients with IA. The expression of miR-574-5p, miR-151a-3p, and miR-652-3p correlated with aneurysm parameters, which may play a significant role in the formation and rupture of IA.
