1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Dental pulp regeneration is significantly aided by human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are crucial in the multidirectional differentiation of many mesenchymal stem cells, but their specific functions and mechanisms remain unknown. This work aimed at elucidating the molecular mechanism by which hsa_circ_0001599 works in hDPSCs during odontogenic differentiation. The expression of hsa_circ_0001599 in hDPSCs and dental pulp tissue was determined by using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT‒PCR). The role of hsa_circ_0001599 in the odontogenic differentiation of hDPSCs and its mechanism were studied using a variety of in vivo and in vitro assessments. The odontogenic differentiation of hDPSCs was facilitated by the overexpression of hsa_circ_0001599, which activated the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway in vitro. In vivo, hsa_circ_0001599 can promote the formation of new dentin-like structures. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0001599 enhanced ITGA2 expression by sponging miR-889-3p. Furthermore, hsa_circ_0001599 interacts with the methylation reader hnRNPA2B1, promoting hnRNPA2B1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and increasing ITGA2 mRNA stability. This research revealed the important role of hsa_circ_0001599 in odontogenic differentiation. Thus, hDPSCs engineered with hsa_circ_0001599 have the potential to be effective therapeutic targets for dental pulp repair and regeneration.
