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

Osteosarcoma is the most common type of primary malignant bone tumor observed in children and adolescents. The aim of the present study was to identify an osteosarcoma-related gene module (OSM) by looking for a dense module following the integration of signals from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) into the human protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. A dataset of somatic mutations in osteosarcoma was obtained from the dbGaP database and their testing P-values were incorporated into the PPI network from a recent study using the dmGWAS bioconductor package. An OSM containing 201 genes (OS genes) and 268 interactions, which were closely associated with immune response, intracellular signal transduction and cell activity was identified. Topological analysis of the OSM identified 11 genes, including APP, APPBP2, ATXN1, HSP90B1, IKZF1, KRTAP10-1, PAK1, PDPK1, SMAD4, SUZ12 and TP53 as potential diagnostic biomarkers for osteosarcoma. The overall survival analysis of osteosarcoma for those 11 genes based on a dataset from the Cancer Genome Atlas, identified APP, HSP90B1, SUZ12 and IKZF1 as osteosarcoma survival-related genes. The results of the present study should be helpful in understanding the diagnosis and treatment of osteosarcoma and its underlying mechanisms. In addition, the methodology used in the present study may be suitable for the analysis of other types of disease.
