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 this project was to identify candidate novel therapeutic targets to facilitate the treatment of COPD using machine-based learning (ML) algorithms and penalized regression models. In this study, 59 healthy smokers, 53 healthy non-smokers and 21 COPD smokers (9 GOLD stage I and 12 GOLD stage II) were included (n = 133). 20,097 probes were generated from a small airway epithelium (SAE) microarray dataset obtained from these subjects previously. Subsequently, the association between gene expression levels and smoking and COPD, respectively, was assessed using: AdaBoost Classification Trees, Decision Tree, Gradient Boosting Machines, Naive Bayes, Neural Network, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine and adaptive LASSO, Elastic-Net, and Ridge logistic regression analyses. Using this methodology, we identified 44 candidate genes, 27 of these genes had been previously been reported as important factors in the pathogenesis of COPD or regulation of lung function. Here, we also identified 17 genes, which have not been previously identified to be associated with the pathogenesis of COPD or the regulation of lung function. The most significantly regulated of these genes included: PRKAR2B, GAD1, LINC00930 and SLITRK6. These novel genes may provide the basis for the future development of novel therapeutics in COPD and its associated morbidities.
