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

This study aimed to elucidate the role of microRNA-92a-3p (miR-92a-3p) in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. We examined how miR-92a-3p, found in exosomes derived from ectopic lesions, influences the behaviour of endometrial cells, dorsal root ganglion (DRG), and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and explored its potential as a non-invasive biomarker. Our findings revealed that miR-92a-3p was significantly upregulated in exosomes derived from ectopic adenomyotic lesions. This upregulation correlated with enhanced migration and invasion of eutopic endometrial cells, DRG, and HUVECs. Furthermore, this study demonstrated a significant correlation between miR-92a-3p levels in urinary exosomes and the clinical symptoms of adenomyosis, suggesting its potential as a non-invasive biomarker for the disease. This study elucidated an exosomal signalling process involving miR-92a-3p that drives pathological infiltration and angiogenesis to promote adenomyosis progression. Our findings highlight upregulated miR-92a-3p in biofluid exosomes as a promising non-invasive biomarker for diagnosing and monitoring adenomyosis and unveil novel targets and strategies for improved clinical management.
