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

Leukoaraiosis (LA) is neuroimaging abnormalities of the cerebral white matter in elderly people. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the cerebral white matter lesions remain unclear. Here, we reported an epigenetic basis and potential pathogenesis for this complex illness. 317 differentially methylated genes were identified to distinguish the mechanism of occurrence and progression of LA. Gene-Ontology pathway analysis highlighted that those genes with epigenetic changes are mostly involved in four major signaling pathways including inflammation and immune response-associated processes (antigen processing and presentation, T cell costimulation and interferon-γ-mediated signaling pathway), synapse assembly, synaptic transmission and cell adhesion. Moreover, immune response seems to be specific to LA occurrence and subsequent disruption of nervous system functions could drive the progression of LA. The significant change of inflammation-associated
