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

Abnormal sub-pathways competitively regulated by long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) for postmenopausal osteoporosis (PO) based on integration of lncRNA-mRNA expression data and pathway network topologies were investigated. Interesting lncRNA-mRNA pairs were selected by Pearsons correlation coefficient (PCC) algorithm on the basis of lncRNA-miRNA and miRNA-mRNA interactions and gene expression profiles. Then, lncRNAs in interesting pairs were embedded into pathway graphs as signature nodes by linking to their regulated-mRNAs, and lncRNA competitively regulated pathways (LCRPs) were gained for PO patients. Moreover, sub-pathways were detected dependent on the shortest distance similarity and the pathway topology. The abnormal sub-pathways were determined utilizing the Wallenius approximation methods through evaluating the statistical significance of sub-pathways. In total 75 interesting lncRNA-mRNA pairs (representing 17 lncRNAs and 74 mRNAs) were identified. Subsequently, 42 LCRPs were extracted from pathway graphs by signature lncRNA regulated mRNAs. Moreover, 14 abnormal sub-pathways with P<0.05 were obtained between PO patients and controls, such as sub-pathways of PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and long-term potentiation. This finding may facilitate understanding the molecular mechanism of PO, and point a new direction to identify potential biomarkers for treatment and prevention of the disease.
