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

objectiveNeonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) is a common respiratory disease. This study aimed to detect the expression of miR-125b-5p in the umbilical cord blood of NRDS patients and to evaluate its diagnostic and prognostic value.

methodsFluorescence-based real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect miR-125b-5p expression in the umbilical cord blood of NRDS patients and controls. The correlation between miR-125b-5p expression and NRDS clinical data was analyzed. Survival was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox regression identified risk factors for adverse outcomes, and the ROC curve evaluated diagnostic and prognostic accuracy.

resultsThe level of miR-125b-5p in NRDS patients was higher than that in controls. High miR-125b-5p expression was correlated with C-reactive protein levels, umbilical artery blood gas parameters, and the lung ultrasound score. Patients with high miR-125b-5p expression had significantly shorter event-free survival (HR 2.358, 95%CI 1.345-4.133, p<0.05) and long-term survival (HR 2.489, 95%CI 1.201-5.161, p<0.05). Cox regression identified high miR-125b-5p expression, high lung ultrasound score, high PaCO₂, and high PaO₂ as prognostic factors.

conclusionsUmbilical cord blood miR-125b-5p is highly expressed in NRDS. It may serve as a biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of NRDS.
