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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, and its diagnosis emains challenging. Exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs), due to their stability, tissue specificity, and ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, show significant promise as ideal biomarkers for AD. The present study aimed to systematically elucidate the relationship between the exosomal miRNA expression changes and AD pathogenesis (including Aβ deposition, Tau protein phosphorylation, and neuroinflammation) and to evaluate their potential utility in clinical screening and therapeutic interventions. A systematic literature search was conducted in the PubMed and Web of Science databases to identify human case-control or cohort studies reporting expressions of mature exosomal miRNAs in the serum, plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, or central nervous system cells. After evaluating the quality of the studies using the National Institutes of Health quality assessment tool, the identified differentially expressed miRNAs were summarized and functionally integrated. Among the 390 screened records, 48 studies (n = 3046 AD patients) met the inclusion criteria. The analysis identified 120 exosomal miRNAs that are differentially expressed at different AD ages. Six miRNAs (miR-125b, miR-146a, miR-193b, miR-185-5p, miR-29b/c, miR-21-5p) were most consistently reported and showed significant correlation with AD pathology.
