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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been recently considered as one of the regulatory mechanisms of the nervous system. Hence, lncRNAs may be considered diagnostic biomarkers for bipolar disorder (BD). We aimed to investigate the expression of RMRP, CTC-487M23.5, and DGCR5 lncRNAs in bipolar patients. The levels of these three lncRNAs were measured in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 50 BD patients and 50 healthy subjects by real-time PCR. Moreover, we performed a ROC curve analysis between the gene expression and some clinical features of BD patients. Significant upregulation of RMRP and CTC-487M23.5 and no significant change in levels of DGCR5 was observed in BD individuals compared with controls. Also, we found upregulation of RMRP and downregulation of CTC-487M23.5 and DGCR5 in females with BD. The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) for RMRP and CTC-487M23.5 lncRNAs were 0.80 and 0.61, respectively. There was no significant correlation between the expression of these three lncRNAs and clinical features in PBMCs of BD patients. These results suggest a role for RMRP and CTC-487M23.5 in the pathogenesis of bipolar disorder. Moreover, the peripheral expression of these two lncRNAs might be beneficial as potential biomarkers for BD.
