Gene Profiling of Circular RNAs in Keloid-prone Individuals and ceRNA Network Construction During Wound Healing.
Article in Aesthetic plastic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Epigenetic alterations of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) are pivotal in the continuous activation and differentiation of fibroblasts in keloid. However, the epigenetic mechanism of circRNA in keloid is still not clear yet. In this study, we aimed to investigate the interplay among differentially expressed circRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs during wound healing in keloid-prone individuals, construct a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, and gain an in-depth insight into the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying keloid development. Utilizing bioinformatic methods, we analyzed the expression profiles from the GSE113621 database. We identified 29 differentially expressed circRNAs (DEcircRNAs) in keloid-prone individuals during wound healing, from which we constructed 14 ceRNA networks. Subsequently, we validated the expression of predicted DEcircRNAs in keloid tissues and elucidated the ceRNA network involving circ_064002 and fibronectin-1 (FN1) through competing miR-30a/b-5p. Knocking down circ_064002 led to down-regulation of FN1 expression and various cellular functions in keloid-derived fibroblasts (KFs), including cell viability, migration, invasion, and repair capacity. Our study introduces a novel approach to explore the presence of DEcircRNAs and the ceRNA regulatory network during wound healing in keloid-prone individuals through in-depth mining of GEO data and also proves the epigenetic regulatory mechanism of circ_064002 in KFs.
