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

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a debilitating condition caused by one or more concussive insults to the head and is frequently observed in combat Veterans deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) or Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). TBI is associated with impairment of cognitive function and development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a psychiatric disorder. Currently, there are no validated biomarkers that can determine the detection of PTSD/TBI in circulation. In this regard, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as specific and sensitive biomarkers in several central nervous system diseases and TBI. The current study evaluated the role of miRNA in circulation TBI and PTSD of OEF and OEF Veterans. While analyzed the expression profile of miRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from an OEF/OIF veteran study cohort using a miRNA array and identified several miRNAs in PBMCs of TBI/PTSD compared with control subjects. We confirmed eight selective dysregulated miRNAs by independent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays. Using bioinformatic tools, we further analyzed target gene function and enrichment analyses using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and gene ontology platforms. Based on unsupervised clustering analysis, we validated two miRNAs, miR-142-5p and miR-155-5p with their target genes like
