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

backgroundMilk fat metabolism is a complex process regulated by non-coding RNAs. circRNAs (circRNAs) can act as miRNA sponges to regulate target gene expression. PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of the circRNA_01754/miR-302c/LATS2 axis in regulating milk fat metabolism in bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs).

methodsmRNA sequencing was performed on bovine mammary gland tissues from different lactation stages to analyze the expression profiles. The interactions between circRNA_01754, miR-302c, and LATS2 were verified using dual-luciferase reporter assays, qRT-PCR, and Western blot. The functional effects on triglyceride (TAG) and cholesterol synthesis were assessed.

resultsCircRNA_01754 was identified as a direct sponge for miR-302c. Overexpression of circRNA_01754 increased LATS2 expression by sequestering miR-302c. Functional experiments showed that circRNA_01754 and LATS2 promoted TAG synthesis, whereas miR-302c inhibited it. Furthermore, miR-302c was found to regulate the expression of YAP1, a key effector of the Hippo pathway, through LATS2.

conclusionsOur findings reveal that circRNA_01754 promotes milk fat synthesis by acting as a ceRNA for miR-302c to upregulate LATS2. This study lays the groundwork for producing high-quality milk and opens up new avenues for enhancing public dietary health.
