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

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the specific regulatory roles of microRNA-219-5p (miR-219-5p) on ulcerative colitis (UC), and reveal the potential mechanisms relating with the differentiation of Treg/Th17 cells.

methodsThe mouse model of chronic UC was established by oral administration of 3% dextran sodium sulfate for three cycles. After intravenous injected with lentivirus (LV)-miR-219-5p for 24 h, the disease activity index (DAI), colon length, as well as the serum levels of Interleukin (IL)-6, -17A, -21, and -23 were measured. In addition, the histopathological changes in colon tissues were observed by Hematoxylin-eosin staining. The differentiation of Treg/Th17 cells was detected by Flow cytometry, and the expression of retinoic acid-related orphan receptor (RORrt), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), and forkhead box p3 (Foxp3) were detected by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot.

resultsMiR-219-5p was downregulated in colonic mucosal tissues of UC mice (P < 0.05). UC mice injected with LV-miR-219-5p exhibited significantly relieved histopathological changes of colon tissues, increased colon length, decreased DAI, as well as decreased serum levels of IL-6, -17A, -21, and -23 (P < 0.05). In addition, the injection of LV-miR-219-5p significantly increased the percentage of Treg cells via upregulating Foxp3, and decreased the percentage of Th17 cells via downregulating RORrt and STAT3 in UC mice (P < 0.05).

conclusionThe upregulation of miR-219-5p relieved the colonic damage and inflammation of UC through balancing the differentiation of Treg/Th17 cells.
