Long Non-Coding RNA Profile in Genetic Symptomatic and Presymptomatic Frontotemporal Dementia: A GENFI Study.
Article in Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD, 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
Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in gene regulation and are implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, including frontotemporal dementia (FTD). However, their expression patterns and potential as biomarkers in genetic FTD involving Chromosome 9 Open Reading Frame (C9ORF72), Microtubule Associated Protein Tau (MAPT), and Progranulin (GRN) genes are not well understood. Objective: This study aimed to profile the expression levels of lncRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected within the GENetic Frontotemporal dementia Initiative (GENFI). Methods: Fifty-three lncRNAs were analyzed with the OpenArray Custom panel, in 131 patients with mutations in C9ORF72, MAPT, and GRN, including 68 symptomatic mutation carriers (SMC) and 63 presymptomatic mutation carriers (PMC), compared with 40 non-carrier controls (NC). Results: Thirty-eight lncRNAs were detectable; the relative expression of NEAT1 and NORAD was significantly higher in C9ORF72 SMC as compared with NC. GAS5 expression was instead significantly lower in the GRN group versus NC. MAPT carriers showed no significant deregulations. No significant differences were observed in PMC. Disease duration did not correlate with lncRNA expression. Conclusions: NEAT1 and NORAD are upregulated in C9ORF72 SMC and GAS5 levels are downregulated in GRN SMC, underlining lncRNAs' relevance in FTD and their potential for biomarker development. Further validation and mechanistic studies are crucial for clinical implications.
