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

Objectives: Exosomes are potent vehicles for intercellular communication. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic disease of unknown etiology. Local administration of miR-124 precursor to rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis suppresses systemic arthritis and bone destruction. Thus, exosomes may be involved in this disease. We aimed to determine the role of exosomes in the pathology of RA. Methods: Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) were collected from patients with RA and osteoarthritis (OA). miR-124-3p mimic was transfected into the RA FLS (RA miR-124 FLS). Exosomes were collected from the culture medium by ultracentrifugation. Macrophages were produced from THP-1 cells. MicroRNAs in the exosomes were analyzed using real-time PCR. Proteomics analysis was performed using nanoscale liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Macrophage migration was evaluated using a Transwell migration assay. SiRNA was used to knockdown proteins of interest. Results: MicroRNAs in the RA FLS, RA miR-124 FLS, and OA FLS exosomes were similar. Proteomics analysis revealed that pentraxin 3 (PTX3) levels were higher in RA FLS exosomes than in RA miR-124 FLS and OA FLS exosomes, and proteasome 20S subunit beta 5 (PSMB5) levels were lower in RA FLS exosomes than in RA miR-124 FLS and OA FLS exosomes. The RA FLS exosomes promoted and the RA miR-124 FLS exosomes suppressed macrophage migration. PTX3-silenced RA FLS exosomes suppressed and PSMB5-silenced OA FLS exosomes promoted macrophage migration. Conclusions: RA FLS exosomes promote macrophage migration via PTX3 and PSMB5, and miR-124-3p suppresses this migration.
