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

backgroundTo analyze the differential expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in humor vitreous and serum of patients affected by vitreomacular diseases (VMD) and rhegmatogeneous retinal detachment (RRD). Secondly, to assess their correlation with perfusion parameters during post-operative follow-ups.

methodsPatients diagnosed with vitreomacular interface disease (VMD) and rhegmatogeneous retinal detachment (RRD) scheduled for pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) were included in our prospective interventional study. All patients underwent multimodal imaging including optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTa) and vitreous humor and serum sampling.

resultsA total of 38 participants were enrolled. Among them, 19 (50%) were diagnosed with VMD and 19 (50%) with macula on- RRD. Among the 105 commonly expressed sequences, six miRNAs (hsa-miR-21-5p, hsa-miR-222-3p, hsa-miR-451a, hsa-miR-146a, hsa-miR-144-3p and hsa-miR-320a) were significantly upregulated, despite differences in folds between the vitreous humor and serum levels. In both groups of diseases, hsa-miR-320a showed a significant correlation with the superficial capillary plexus (SCP) macular vessel density in RRD (rho = 0.499) and iVMD (rho = 0.636) while hsa-miR-144-3p exhibited a negative correlation (rho = −0.776) with the SCP variation in the iVMD group.

conclusionThe differential expression of miRNAs in patients affected by VMD and RRD, alongside their correlation with perfusion parameters, supports miRNA application in clinical practice as valuable biomarkers for their potential predictive role.
