MicroRNA-7: a versatile player and core target in brain disorders.
Synthesis in Journal of translational medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThis article provides a systematic review of the biological characteristics, regulatory mechanisms, and roles of MicroRNA-7 (miR-7) in the nervous system, as well as explores its clinical translation potential and challenges.
methodsA review analysis integrating the progress of basic and clinical research related to miR-7.
resultsCharacteristics and Regulation: miR-7 is highly expressed in mammalian brain tissues, with its function finely regulated by ceRNA networks (such as ciRS-7 and lncRNA SNHG1) and epigenetic modifications, forming a multi-layer dynamic regulatory system. MECHANISMS OF ACTION: It plays multi-faceted intervention roles in protein aggregation, neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and tumor progression by targeting key factors such as α-synuclein, NLRP3 inflammasome, EGFR/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and mitochondrial-related proteins (e.g. VDAC1). Role in Disease: It has significant pathophysiological implications in diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, ischemic stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, and glioblastoma. Translational Potential: Changes in miR-7 expression in bodily fluids (blood, cerebrospinal fluid) and extracellular vesicles demonstrate diagnostic and prognostic potential; delivery systems based on nanomedicine (e.g. liposomes, graphene oxide, AAV vectors) and their combination therapy strategies (e.g. in conjunction with chemotherapy and immunotherapy) enhance its brain targeting and therapeutic efficiency.
conclusionmiR-7 is a key regulatory molecule in brain diseases, with significant value for basic research and clinical translation. Future advancements should leverage cutting-edge technologies such as single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and intelligent responsive nanocarriers to deepen the understanding of its regulatory networks and address challenges such as mechanism complexity, delivery system targeting, and the lack of clinical translation standards, to accelerate its transition from basic research to clinical application.
