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

The neural crest is one of the key features of craniofacial development. MicroRNA-1 (miR-1) is a single-stranded noncoding RNA that serves an important role in embryonic development. However, the function of miR-1 in neural crest cells (NCCs) is unknown. Therefore, to evaluate the role of miR-1 in NCC development, a miR-1 mutant zebrafish was generated in the current study. Mouse NCCs were isolated from the first branchial arch of embryos at gestational day E9.5, and miR-1 was silenced using a miR-1 inhibitor. To the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to report that homozygous zebrafish lacking miR-1 exhibited developmental defects in NCC-derived craniofacial bones, heart, melanocytes and iridophores. These defects may be caused by an increase in apoptosis of NCCs during their migration and differentiation in embryonic development. Moreover, the apoptosis analysis and western blotting results demonstrated that this effect was modulated via the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, and miR-1 inhibited NCC apoptosis by modulating this pathway. These results collectively suggested that miR-1 in NCCs may be essential for craniofacial development.
