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

backgroundLung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors. Despite advances in lung cancer therapies, prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer is still unfavorable. The aim of this study was to identify the prognostic value of key genes in lung tumorigenesis.

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out by GEO2R from three Gene Expression Omnibus cohorts. Common DEGs were selected for Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis and Gene Ontology enrichment analysis. Protein- protein interaction networks were constructed by the STRING database and visualized by Cytoscape software. Hub genes, filtered from the CytoHubba, were validated using the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis database, and their genomic alterations were identified by performing the cBioportal. Finally, overall survival analysis of hub genes was performed using Kaplan-Meier Plotter.

resultsFrom three datasets, 169 DEGs (70 upregulated and 99 downregulated) were identified. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses showed that upregulated DEGs were significantly enriched in cell cycle, p53 pathway, and extracellular matrix-receptor interactions; the downregulated DEGs were significantly enriched in PPAR pathway and tyrosine metabolism. The protein-protein interaction network consisted of 71 nodes and 305 edges, including 49 upregulated and 22 downregulated genes. The hub genes, including
