Lnc-216 regulates the miR-143-5p /MMP2 signaling axis aggravates retinal endothelial cell dysfunction.
Article in Clinical hemorheology and microcirculation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 2 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
purposeDiabetic retinopathy (DR) is a serious retinal vascular disease that affects many individuals in their prime working years. The present research aimed at whether and how LOC681216 (LNC-216) is involved in retinal vascular dysfunction under diabetic conditions.
methodsRat retinal microvascular endothelial cells (RRMECs) treated with high glucose (HG) were used for functional analysis. Gene expression analysis was conducted using the Clariom D Affymetrix platform. The wound healing, transwell, and vascular tube formation assays were used to identify the migration, invasion, and tube formation capability of RRMECs. The dual-luciferase reporter confirmed the binding interaction between miR-143-5p and LNC-216 or matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP2).
resultsLnc-216 was upregulated in RRMECs treated with HG. Lnc-216 knockdown markedly suppressed the tube formation, cell migration, and wound healing of cultured RRMECs under HG conditions. Mechanistically, Lnc-216 acted as a miR-143-5p sponge to affect the biological activity of miR-143-5p, which led to increased expression of matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP2).
conclusionsLnc-216 attenuates diabetic retinal vascular dysfunction through the miR-143-5p/MMP2 axis, providing a potential therapeutic strategy for DR.
