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 present study aimed to identify the genes and underlying mechanisms critical to the pathology of spinal cord injury (SCI). Gene expression profiles of spinal cord tissues of trkB.T1 knockout (KO) mice following SCI were accessible from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Compared with trkB.T1 wild type (WT) mice, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in trkB.T1 KO mice following injury at different time points were screened out. The significant DEGs were subjected to function, co‑expression and protein‑protein interaction (PPI) network analyses. A total of 664 DEGs in the sham group and SCI groups at days 1, 3, and 7 following injury were identified. Construction of a Venn diagram revealed the overlap of several DEGs in trkB.T1 KO mice under different conditions. In total, four modules (Magenta, Purple, Brown and Blue) in a co‑expression network were found to be significant. Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type C (PTPRC), coagulation factor II, thrombin (F2), and plasminogen (PLG) were the most significant nodes in the PPI network. 'Fc γ R‑mediated phagocytosis' and 'complement and coagulation cascades' were the significant pathways enriched by genes in the PPI and co‑expression networks. The results of the present study identified PTPRC, F2 and PLG as potential targets for SCI treatment, which may further improve the general understanding of SCI pathology.
