Identification and characterization of differentially expressed circular RNAs in extraocular muscle of oculomotor nerve palsy.
Article in BMC genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundOculomotor nerve palsy (ONP) is a neuroparalytic disorder resulting in dysfunction of innervating extraocular muscles (EOMs), of which the pathological characteristics remain underexplored.
methodsIn this study, medial rectus muscle tissue samples from four ONP patients and four constant exotropia (CXT) patients were collected for RNA sequencing. Differentially expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) were identified and included in functional enrichment analysis, followed by interaction analysis with microRNAs and mRNAs as well as RNA binding proteins. Furthermore, RT-qPCR was used to validate the expression level of the differentially expressed circRNAs.
resultsA total of 84 differentially expressed circRNAs were identified from 10,504 predicted circRNAs. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that the differentially expressed circRNAs significantly correlated with skeletal muscle contraction. In addition, interaction analyses showed that up-regulated circRNA_03628 was significantly interacted with RNA binding protein AGO2 and EIF4A3 as well as microRNA hsa-miR-188-5p and hsa-miR-4529-5p. The up-regulation of circRNA_03628 was validated by RT-qPCR, followed by further elaboration of the expression, location and clinical significance of circRNA_03628 in EOMs of ONP.
conclusionsOur study may shed light on the role of differentially expressed circRNAs, especially circRNA_03628, in the pathological changes of EOMs in ONP.
