Identification of key genes associated with the effect of osmotic stimuli on intervertebral discs using microarray analysis.
Article in Oncology letters, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The present study aimed to explore the effect of osmotic stimuli on intervertebral discs (IVDs) using microarray analysis. Gene expression dataset GSE1648 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. There were 11 IVD cell samples in this dataset, which included 4 hyperosmotic stimuli samples, 3 hypoosmotic stimuli samples and 4 isosmotic stimuli samples. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in hyperosmotic or hypoosmotic IVD cells (designated DEGs-hyper or DEGs-hypo) were identified, compared with isosmotic cells, using the limma package of R software. The Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery was used to perform a Gene Ontology (GO) term enrichment analysis for the DEG sets. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and microRNA (miRNA) gene-regulatory network data for the DEG sets were obtained using the Human Protein Reference Database (HPRD) and the TargetScan database, respectively, and these networks were constructed and visualized using Cytoscape software. There was a total of 43 DEGs in DEGs-hyper and 9 in DEGs-hypo. Analysis of DEGs-hyper revealed that 41 GO terms were significantly enriched. In total, 376 pairs and 382 nodes were involved in the PPI network, and 1,314 miRNA-gene pairs and 422 nodes were contained in the miRNA-gene-regulated network. The results of the present study indicated that potential target genes (including
