Diagnostic and prognostic value of plasma miR-106a-5p levels in patients with acute heart failure.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundIt is essential to find reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of acute heart failure (AHF) for its mitigation. Currently, increasing attention is paid to the role of microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) as diagnostic or prognostic markers for cardiovascular diseases. Since plasma miR-106a-5p has been observed to be downregulated in AHF, its value in the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of AHF deserves further exploration. Accordingly, this study analyzed the diagnostic and prognostic value of plasma miR-106a-5p in AHF patients.
methodsProspectively, this study included 127 AHF patients who met the 2021 European Society of Cardiology Guidelines and 127 control individuals. Plasma miR-106a-5p levels were determined with RT-qPCR. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the correlation of plasma miR-106a-5p levels with NT-proBNP and hs-CRP levels in AHF patients. All AHF patients were followed up for 1 year and allocated into poor and good prognosis groups, and plasma miR-106a-5p levels were compared. The diagnostic and prognostic value of plasma miR-106a-5p for AHF was assessed with a receiver-operating characteristic curve.
resultsPlasma miR-106a-5p was lowly expressed in AHF patients versus controls (0.53 ± 0.26 vs. 1.09 ± 0.46) and showed significant negative correlations with NT-proBNP and hs-CRP levels. Plasma miR-106a-5p level < 0.655 could assist in AHF diagnosis. Plasma miR-106a-5p levels were markedly lower in poor-prognosis AHF patients than in good-prognosis patients. Plasma miR-106a-5p level < 0.544 could assist in predicting poor prognosis in AHF patients.
conclusionPlasma miR-106a-5p is downregulated in AHF patients and could assist in diagnosis and poor prognosis prediction of AHF.
