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 purpose of the present study was to screen potential pathogenic biomarkers of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) via microarray analysis. The mRNA and microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles of GSE96574 and GSE71302 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, as well as the methylation profile of GSE61441. A total of 5 ccRCC tissue samples and 5 normal kidney tissue samples were contained in each profile of GSE96574 and GSE71302, and 46 ccRCC tissue samples and 46 normal kidney tissue samples were involved in GSE61441. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and the differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were obtained via limma package in ccRCC tissues compared with normal kidney tissues. The Two Sample t-test and the Beta distribution test were used to identify the differentially methylated sites (DMSs). The Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) was used to perform the Gene Ontology (GO) term and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses of the DEGs. The targets of the DEMs were screened with the miRWalk database, and the further combination analyses of DEGs, DEMs and DMSs were conducted. Additionally, reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and methylation-specific PCR (MS-PCR) were performed to detect the mRNA level and methylation status of
