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

Purpose: This study aims to explore the clinical significance of miR-17-5p in T2DM and its chronic complications. Patients and Methods: A total of 100 patients with T2DM and 90 healthy controls were included. The expression of miR-17-5p was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. A receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic value of miR-17-5p for T2DM. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between miR-17-5p and blood glucose indicators in T2DM patients. The Kaplan-Meier curve and multivariate Cox regression analysis were employed to analyze the factors influencing chronic complications. Liposome-mediated transfection technology was used to transfect miR-17-5p mimics and inhibitors into endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) respectively, to achieve overexpression and knockdown of miR-17-5p in cells. On this basis, we further investigate the potential molecular mechanism by which miR-17-5p is involved in the occurrence and development of chronic complications inT2DM. Results: Serum miR-17-5p was significantly downregulated in T2DM patients (vs healthy controls, P<0.001). The AUC for distinguishing T2DM patients from healthy individuals was 0.932. The expression of this miRNA was significantly negatively correlated with FBG (r=-0.718) and HbA1c (r=-0.695) (P<0.001). Follow-up showed that low expression of miR-17-5p was closely associated with T2DM chronic complications (complication group vs non-complication group, P<0.001), with an AUC of 0.866 for distinguishing the presence from the absence of complications. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that individuals with low miR-17-5p expression had a higher risk of complications (Log-rank P=0.009). Mechanistically, miR-17-5p targets FBXO48 and affects the functions of EPCs. Conclusion: The expression of miR-17-5p is reduced in T2DM. It influences the functions of EPCs by targeting
