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

Introduction: Inflammatory signaling regulates hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) function, but mechanisms that maintain inflammatory signaling within a physiological range remain incompletely understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of immune signaling pathways. In this report we hypothesized that MIRC11 miRNAs (miR-23a, miR-24-2, and miR-27a) and miR-146a which oppositely regulate NF-κB activity, function to fine-tune inflammatory responses in hematopoietic cells. Methods: Inflammatory gene expression in Results: RNA sequencing revealed reduced activation of inflammatory pathways including interferon, TNF, IL-6, and TLR signaling in mmu-MIRC11-deficient HSPCs. Double knockout mice were viable and exhibited modest changes in the lineage skewing observed in Discussion: These findings demonstrate that MIRC11 promotes inflammatory signaling in hematopoietic cells and that interactions between MIRC11 and miR-146a regulate inflammatory gene expression in a context-dependent manner. Together, these results highlight the complexity of miRNA-mediated control of immune signaling and suggest that coordinated manipulation of miRNA pathways may enable selective modulation of inflammatory responses.
