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

In recent years, a steady increase has been detected in the incidence of acute cerebral infarction (ACI). ACI is caused by blood flow disruption, leading to high disability and mortality rates. Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms is critical toward developing effective therapeutic approaches. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are an important class of non-coding RNAs, which have been implicated in several molecular pathways, and their dysregulation has been described in several disease conditions. Here, we set out to explore the possible regulatory role of circRNAs in ischemic stroke and study their molecular function in disease. First, we applied high-throughput sequencing techniques to identify the differential changes of plasma circRNAs expression in patients with acute cerebral infarction. Next, we used GO and KEGG pathway analysis to predict the function of differentially expressed circRNAs. Moreover, we have assessed the possible interaction between the identified differentially expressed circRNAs and miRNAs. Finally, we have selected and validated five downregulated circRNAs by RT-qPCR. Together, the results of this study provide evidence that circRNAs are potential biomarkers for early diagnosis of cerebral infarction and have to be considered as targets for drug treatment.
