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

The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential genes involved in drug resistance of Candida albicans (C. albicans) by performing microarray analysis. The gene expression profile of GSE65396 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus, including a control, 15‑min and 45‑min macrocyclic compound RF59‑treated group with three repeats for each. Following preprocessing using RAM, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened using the Limma package. Subsequently, the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways of these genes were analyzed using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery. Based on interactions estimated by the Search Tool for Retrieval of Interacting Gene, the protein‑protein interaction (PPI) network was visualized using Cytoscape. Subnetwork analysis was performed using ReactomeFI. A total of 154 upregulated and 27 downregulated DEGs were identified in the 15‑min treated group, compared with the control, and 235 upregulated and 233 downregulated DEGs were identified in the 45‑min treated group, compared with the control. The upregulated DEGs were significantly enriched in the ribosome pathway. Based on the PPI network, PRP5, RCL1, NOP13, NOP4 and MRT4 were the top five nodes in the 15‑min treated comparison. GIS2, URA3, NOP58, ELP3 and PLP7 were the top five nodes in the 45‑min treated comparison, and its subnetwork was significantly enriched in the ribosome pathway. The macrocyclic compound RF59 had a notable effect on the ribosome and its associated pathways of C. albicans. RCL1, NOP4, MRT4, GIS2 and NOP58 may be important in RF59‑resistance.
