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

backgroundThe high mortality rate of ARDS is closely related to pulmonary fibrosis (PLF), and the degree of pulmonary fibrosis affects the prognosis of ARDS. Numerous studies indicated the abnormal expression of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of various lung diseases, such as ARDS and PLF. This study aimed to explore the expression of serum miR-6515-5p and its clinical performance in ARDS complicated with PLF.

methodsRT-qPCR analysis was employed to measure miR-6515-5p levels within the serum specimens from ARDS patients who either had PLF or did not. Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic value of miR-6515-5p. To analyze the risk factors linked with the development of PLF in ARDS patients, logistic regression analysis was conducted. Kaplan-Meier curve was conducted to assess the prognostic value of miR-6515-5p in predicting the outcome of ARDS patients with PLF. Multivariate COX regression analysis was performed to identify the PLF-related risk factors associated with outcomes.

resultsSerum miR-6515-5p was downregulated in ARDS patients, especially in patients suffering from PLF. miR-6515-5p expression can distinguish ARDS patients from healthy individuals and related to the occurrence of PLF. Most patients with low miR-6515-5p expression had low FVC and DLCO, as well as high Murray score and APACHE II score. Moreover, miR-6515-5p expression has a certain high value in differentiating ARDS patients with PLF from those without PLF. In addition, miR-6515-5p may be a prognostic marker in ARDS patients suffering from PLF.

conclusionsThese data identified the abnormal expression of miR-6515-5p in ARDS and PLF, and implied a potential clinical early diagnostic and prognostic marker in ARDS suffering from PLF.
