Profile of miRNA expression in the hippocampus of epileptic mice and the prediction of potential therapeutic targets.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Epilepsy is a common neurological disease. Increasing evidence has highlighted the role of miRNAs in the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of neurological diseases such as epilepsy. In this study, we established a lithium chloride-pilocarpine epilepsy mouse model, performed miRNA sequencing of hippocampal tissue samples, and compared the obtained miRNA expression profile with that of normal control mice to determine differences in expression levels. We found that 55 miRNAs were differentially expressed in status epilepticus mice compared with normal control mice, with 38 upregulated and 17 downregulated miRNAs. Through subsequent analysis of the five downregulated miRNAs (mmu-let-7a-1-3p, mmu-let-7a-2-3p, mmu-let-7c-5p, mmu-let-7d-5p, and mmu-let-7e-5p) with the most significant differences in expression, the key pathways involved included the MAPK signaling pathway and focal adhesion, among others. Therefore, we believe that let-7 family miRNAs may be potential therapeutic targets for epilepsy.
