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

This study aimed to measure mRNA and miRNA expression profile in corneal impression cytology (IC) samples from patients with congenital aniridia (CA) and healthy controls, and to elucidate the key genes and signaling pathways involved in aniridia-associated keratopathy (AAK). Corneal IC samples were collected from 14 patients with CA and 14 healthy controls. RNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and miRNAs. Correlations with age and AAK grade were analyzed, selected miRNAs were validated by RT-qPCR, and Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were conducted to characterize biological functions and pathways. A total of 695 DEGs and 19 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified.
