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

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignant clonal proliferative disorder of B cells. Inhibition of cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest are the main pathological causes of this disease, but its molecular mechanism requires further investigation. The purpose of the present study was to identify biomarkers for the early diagnosis and treatment of CLL, and to explore the molecular mechanisms of CLL progression. A total of 488 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 32 differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs; DEMs) for CLL were identified by analyzing the gene chips GSE22529, GSE39411 and GSE62137. Functional and pathway enrichment analyses of DEGs demonstrated that DEGs were mainly involved in transcriptional dysregulation and multiple signaling pathways, such as the nuclear factor‑κB and mitogen‑activated protein kinase signaling pathways. In addition, Cytoscape software was used to visualize the protein‑protein interactions of these DEGs in order to identify hub genes, which could be used as biomarkers for the early diagnosis and treatment of CLL. Cytoscape software was also used to analyze the association between the predicted target mRNAs of DEMs and DEGs and increase knowledge about the miRNA‑mRNA regulatory network associated with the progression of CLL. Taken together, the present study provided a bioinformatics basis for advancing our understanding of the pathogenesis of CLL by identifying differentially expressed hub genes, miRNA‑mRNA target pairs and molecular pathways. In addition, hub genes may be used as novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of CLL and to guide the selection of CLL drug combinations.
