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

purposeTo investigate the molecular mechanism and search for candidate biomarkers in the gene expression profile of patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) of progressive vs non-progressive DPN patients in dataset GSE24290 were screened. Functional enrichment analysis was conducted, and hub genes were extracted from the protein-protein interaction network. The expression level of hub genes in serum samples in another dataset GSE95849 was obtained, followed by the ROC curve analysis.

resultsA total of 352 DEGs were obtained from dataset GSE24290. They were involved in 14 gene ontology terms and 10 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways, mainly related to lipid metabolism. Eight hub genes (LEP, APOE, ADIPOQ, FABP4, CD36, GPAM, CIDEC, and PNPLA4) were revealed, and their expression level was obtained in dataset GSE95849. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that CIDEC (AUC=1), APOE (AUC=0.833), CD36 (AUC=0.803), and PNPLA4 (AUC=0.861) might be candidate serum biomarkers of DPN.

conclusionLipid metabolism of Schwann cells might be inhibited in progressive DPN. CIDEC, APOE, CD36, and PNPLA4 might be potential predictive biomarkers in the early DPN diagnosis of patients with DM.
