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

backgroundKeloid is an excessive fibrosis disease caused by the abnormal proliferation of collagen fibers following trauma. Previous studies have shown that genetic factors have been considered to play important roles in keloid formation. This study is aimed to investigate the regulatory network of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in keloid, and identifying its key biomarkers.

methodsWe performed RNA-seq and miRNA-seq on keloid and normal skin samples. Sequencing datasets were analyzed by bioinformatics. Gene ontology (GO) and pathway analysis presented the characteristics of associated protein-coding genes. Differentially expressed ceRNAs were validated by quantitative reverse transcriptase-PCR (qRT-PCR).

resultsWe identified a total of 319 lncRNAs, 1,533 mRNAs and 40 miRNAs as keloid-specific RNAs. Both the GO biological processes and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways were analyzed for 1,219 specific genes with differentially expressed mRNAs. Then, with 509 key lncRNAs, 25 miRNAs, and 94 mRNAs, we constructed a ceRNA network and explored any potential underlying mechanisms. In the regulation of the actin cytokeleton pathway, we validated 2 pairs of ceRNAs EGFR/miR-370-3p/lnc-GLB1L-1 and ITGB5/ miR-204/ lnc-CASP9-3 in another sample size in keloid.

conclusionsThrough RNA-seq and miRNA-seq, we identified keloid-associated lncRNAs, mRNAs and miRNAs, which can be used as potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers for keloid. Our study may lay a foundation for future pathogenesis studies.
