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

backgroundPulmonary fibrosis is an emerging complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this study, we speculate that patients with COVID-19 and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) may share aberrant expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) associated to the progression of lung fibrosis.

objectiveTo identify miRNAs presenting similar alteration in COVID-19 and IPF, and describe their impact on fibrogenesis.

methodsA systematic review of the literature published between 2010 and January 2022 (PROSPERO, CRD42022341016) was conducted using the key words (COVID-19 OR SARS-CoV-2) AND (microRNA OR miRNA) or (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis OR IPF) AND (microRNA OR miRNA) in Title/Abstract.

resultsOf the 1988 references considered, 70 original articles were appropriate for data extraction: 27 studies focused on miRNAs in COVID-19, and 43 on miRNAs in IPF. 34 miRNAs were overlapping in COVID-19 and IPF, 7 miRNAs presenting an upregulation (miR-19a-3p, miR-200c-3p, miR-21-5p, miR-145-5p, miR-199a-5p, miR-23b and miR-424) and 9 miRNAs a downregulation (miR-17-5p, miR-20a-5p, miR-92a-3p, miR-141-3p, miR-16-5p, miR-142-5p, miR-486-5p, miR-708-3p and miR-150-5p).

conclusionSeveral studies reported elevated levels of profibrotic miRNAs in COVID-19 context. In addition, the balance of antifibrotic miRNAs responsible of the modulation of fibrotic processes is impaired in COVID-19. This evidence suggests that the deregulation of fibrotic-related miRNAs participates in the development of fibrotic lesions in the lung of post-COVID-19 patients.
