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

introductionCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide according to World Health Organization (WHO) data. Atherosclerosis is considered as a chronic inflammatory disease that develops in response to damage to the vascular intima-media layer in most cases. In recent years, epigenetic events have emerged as important players in the development and progression of CVDs. Since noncoding RNA (ncRNAs) are important regulators in the organization of the pathophysiological processes of the cardiovascular system, they have the potential to be used as therapeutic targets, diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. In this study long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and mRNA gene expression were compared between coronary atherosclerotic plaques (CAP) and the internal mammary artery (IMA)  which has the same genetic makeup and is exposed to the same environmental stress conditions with CAP in the same individual.

methodslncRNA and mRNA gene expressions were determined using the microarray in the samples. Microarray results were validated by RT-qPCR. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs; lncRNAs and mRNAs) were determined by GeneSpring (Ver 3.0) [p values < 0.05 and fold change (FC) > 2]. DAVID bioinformatics program was used for Gene Ontology (GO) annotation and enrichment analyses of statistically significant genes between CAP and IMA tissue. RESULTS AND

conclusionsIn our study, 345 DEGs were found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05; FC > 2) between CAP and IMA. Of these, 65 were lncRNA and 280 were mRNA. Thirty-three lncRNAs were upregulated, while 32 lncRNAs were downregulated. Some of the important mRNAs are SPP1, CYP4B1, CHRDL1, MYOC, and ALKAL2, while some of the lncRNAs are LOC105377123, LINC01857, DIO3OS, LOC101928134, and KCNA3 between CAP and IMA tissue. We also identified genes that correlated with statistically significant lncRNAs. The results of this study are expected to be an important source of data in the development of new genetically based drugs to prevent atherosclerotic plaque. In addition, the data obtained may contribute to the explanation of the epigenetic mechanisms that play a role in the pathological basis of the process that protects the IMA from atherosclerosis.
