circUQCRC2 promotes asthma progression in children by activating the VEGFA/NF-κB pathway by targeting miR-381-3p.

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
This study targeted to explore circUQCRC2's role and mechanism in childhood asthma. A mouse model of ovalbumin-induced asthma was established to evaluate the effects of circUQCRC2 on childhood asthma in terms of oxidative stress, inflammation, and collagen deposition. The effects of circUQCRC2 on platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB)-induced smooth muscle cells (SMCs) were evaluated, the downstream mRNA of miRNA and its associated pathways were predicted and validated, and their effects on asthmatic mice were evaluated. circUQCRC2 levels were upregulated in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of asthmatic mice and PDGF-BB-treated SMCs. Depleting circUQCRC2 alleviated tissue damage in asthmatic mice, improved inflammatory levels and oxidative stress in asthmatic mice and PDGF-BB-treated SMC, inhibited malignant proliferation and migration of SMCs, and improved airway remodeling. Mechanistically, circUQCRC2 regulated VEGFA expression through miR-381-3p and activated the NF-κB cascade. circUQCRC2 knockdown inactivated the NF-κB cascade by modulating the miR-381-3p/VEGFA axis. Promoting circUQCRC2 stimulates asthma development by activating the miR-381-3p/VEGFA/NF-κB cascade. Therefore, knocking down circUQCRC2 or overexpressing miR-381-3p offers a new approach to treating childhood asthma.
