Establishment of a miRNA profile in paediatric HIV-1 patients and its potential as a biomarker for effectiveness of the combined antiretroviral therapy.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
miRNAs have been extensively studied in pathological conditions, including viral infections, such as those provoked by HIV-1. Several cellular and circulating miRNAs are altered during HIV-1 infection, with either beneficial effects on host defenses or enhanced virus infectivity. Blood samples were collected in sterile EDTA tubes and plasma was separated and stored, as were PBMCs. RNA was isolated and reverse-transcribed. Finally, the miRNA gene expression profile was assessed using TaqMan Array Human microRNA Card A v2.0. A comprehensive statistical analysis was performed on the results obtained. This is the first study on miRNAs in HIV-1 paediatric patients, and a miRNA profile differentiating patients starting combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) at different times after HIV-1 diagnosis was established. Thirty-four miRNAs were observed to have different expression levels between the control group and the cART group. The data indicates the need to start cART as soon as possible after the establishment of HIV-1 infection to assure the best outcome possible. Finally, the selected 34 miRNAs may be used as biomarkers for prognosis and assessing therapy effectiveness. However, more research must be conducted to establish adequate quantitative correlations.
