Co-expression analysis reveals key gene modules and pathways of oral squamous cell carcinoma.

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
backgroundOral squamous cell carcinoma is a malignant tumor which is particularly common in the developing world, mostly in older males.
objectiveAlthough gene expression analyses had been performed previously, to our best knowledge, systemic co-expression analysis for this disease is still lacking to date.
methodsIn this study, we built the co-expression modules with the help of Weighted Correlation Network Analysis (WGCNA) and investigated the function enrichment of co-expression genes from important modules by bioinformatics analysis.
resultsA total of 10 co-expression modules were conducted for 4500 genes from 167 oral squamous cell carcinoma samples. Number of genes for each module ranged from 52 to 1112, with the mean of 450. Interaction relationships of hub-genes between pairwise modules showed great differences, suggesting the high confidence of modules. Functional enrichments of the co-expression modules exhibited great differences. Furthermore, genes in the module ME blue and module ME magenta significantly enriched in hsa05332 (Graft-versus-host disease) and hsa05330 (Allograft rejection), and the two pathways were associated with the oral squamous cell carcinoma.
conclusionTogether, our findings provided the framework of co-expression gene modules of oral squamous cell carcinoma and further understanding of these modules at functional aspect.
