The Role of MicroRNAs in Neurodegeneration: Insights from Huntington's Disease.
Review in Molecular neurobiology, 2025. 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
MicroRNA (miRNAs) is a single non-coding strand with a small sequence of approximately 21-25 nucleotides, which could be a biomarker or act as a therapeutic agent for disease. This review explores the dynamic role of miRNAs in Huntington's disease (HD), encompassing their regulatory function, potential as diagnostic biomarker tools, and emerging therapeutic applications. We delved into the dysregulation of specific miRNAs in HD, for instance, downregulated levels of miR-9 and miR-124 and increased levels of miR-155 and miR-196a. These alterations highlight the promise of miRNAs as non-invasive tools for early HD detection and disease progression monitoring. Moving beyond diagnosis, the exciting potential of miRNA-based therapies. By mimicking downregulated miRNAs or inhibiting dysregulated ones, we can potentially restore the balance of mutant target gene expression and modify disease progression. Recent research using engineered miRNAs delivered via an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector in a transgenic HD minipig model demonstrates encouraging results in reducing mutant HD and improving motor function.
