MicroRNAs regulating autophagy: opportunities in treating neurodegenerative diseases.
Review in Frontiers in neuroscience, 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
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are increasingly prevalent in our aging population, imposing significant social and economic burdens. Currently, most ND patients receive only symptomatic treatment due to limited understanding of their underlying causes. Consequently, there is a pressing need for comprehensive research into the pathological mechanisms of NDs by both researchers and clinicians. Autophagy, a cellular mechanism responsible for maintaining cellular equilibrium by removing dysfunctional organelles and misfolded proteins, plays a vital role in cell health and is implicated in various diseases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) exert influence on autophagy and hold promise for treating these diseases. These small oligonucleotides bind to the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of target mRNAs, leading to mRNA silencing, degradation, or translation blockade. This review explores recent findings on the regulation of autophagy and autophagy-related genes by different miRNAs in various pathological conditions, including neurodegeneration and inflammation-related diseases. The recognition of miRNAs as key regulators of autophagy in human diseases has spurred investigations into pharmacological compounds and traditional medicines targeting these miRNAs in disease models. This has catalyzed a new wave of therapeutic interventions aimed at modulating autophagy.
