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

backgroundPrevious studies on transcriptional profiles suggested dysregulation of multiple RNA species in Alzheimer's disease. However, despite recent investigations revealing various aspects of circular RNA (circRNA)-associated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathogenesis, few genome-wide studies have explored circRNA-associated profiles in AD patients exhibiting varying degrees of cognitive loss.

objectiveTo investigate the potential pathogenesis-related molecular biological changes in the various stages of AD progression.

methodsWhole transcriptome sequencing was performed on the peripheral blood of 7 normal cognition (NC) subjects, 8 patients with mild cognitive impairment, 8 AD patients with mild dementia (miD), and 7 AD patients with moderate dementia (moD). Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were conducted to predict the potential functions of the maternal genes of microRNAs (miRNAs), circRNAs and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). The construction of ceRNA network was performed between the NC group and each diseased group based on the differently expressed RNAs.

resultsIn total, 3568 messenger RNAs (mRNAs), 142 miRNAs, 990 lncRNAs, and 183 circRNAs were identified as significantly differentially expressed across the four groups. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis revealed the significant roles of GTPase activity and the MAPK signaling pathway in AD pathogenesis. A circRNA-miRNA-lncRNA ceRNA pathway, characterized by the downregulated hsa-miR-7-5p and upregulated hsa_circ_0001170, was identified based on the differentially expressed RNAs between the NC group and the moD group.

conclusionThe study suggests that circRNAs may be independent of mRNAs in AD pathogenesis and holds promise as potential biomarkers for AD clinical manifestations and pathological changes.
