Longitudinal course of circulating miRNAs in a patient with hypophosphatasia and asfotase alfa treatment: a case report.
Article in JBMR plus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is characterized by low activity of tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP). The enzyme replacement therapy asfotase alfa has been approved for childhood-onset forms of HPP. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as a novel disease biomarker, with potential application in therapy monitoring. Circulating miRNAs were analyzed at baseline, months 1, 2, 4, and 16 in a 49-yr-old woman with childhood-onset HPP, chronic musculoskeletal pain, and non-traumatic fractures prior to enzyme replacement therapy. Serum RNA was extracted and sequenced using miRNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Germany), RealSeq Biosciences Kit (Santa Cruz, US) together with miND spike-in control kit (TAmiRNA, Austria) and Illumina NovaSeq 6000 SP1 flow cell (San Diego, US). Brief Pain Inventory Severity and Interference scores (BPI-S/BPI-I), fatigue severity scale (FSS), Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), Western Ontario and McMaster university hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score (WOMAC), fibromyalgia impact questionnaire (FIQ), 6-Minute Walking Test (6-MWT), chair-rise-test (CRT), and handgrip dynamometry (HD) were performed at baseline and different timepoints during the therapy. Out of >800 screened, 84 miRNAs were selected based on differences in expression profiles between 24 HPP patients and 24 healthy controls. Six miRNAs showed a clear graphic trend and were up- or downregulated by ≥50% reads per million (rpm). These included hsa-let-7i-5p (+50%), hsa-miR-1-3p (-66.66%), hsa-miR-1294 (+63.63%), hsa-miR-206 (-85.57%), hsa-miR-375-3p (-71.43%), and hsa-miR-624-5p (+69.44%). hsa-miR-1-3p and hsa-miR-206 were identified as muscle-specific miRNAs. hsa-mir-375-3p, which negatively regulates osteogenesis, was significantly downregulated. In terms of patient-reported outcomes, BPI-S, BPI-I, FSS, PGI-I, WOMAC, and FIQ showed a reduction by -58.62%, -68.29%, -33.33%, -75.00%, -63.29%, and -43.02%, respectively. 6-MWT improved by +33.89% and CRT by -44.46%. Mean hand grip strength of the right/left hand measured by HD improved by +12.50% and + 23.53%, respectively. miRNA profile changes during the therapy with asfotase alfa, accompanying improvements in functionality tests and quality of life scores.
