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

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by hyperglycemia. The liver has a critical role in regulating glucose homeostasis. The present study aimed to analyze hepatic gene expression profiles and to identify the key genes and pathways involved in T2DM. Gene expression profiles of 10 patients with T2DM and 7 subjects with normal glucose tolerance were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Subsequently, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and functional enrichment analysis was performed. In addition, a protein-protein interaction network was built and hub genes were identified. In total, 1,320 DEGs were identified, including 698 up- and 622 downregulated genes, and these were mainly enriched in positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter, cell adhesion, inflammatory response, positive regulation of apoptotic process, signal transduction and the Tolllike receptor signaling pathway. A total of 8 hub genes (G-protein subunit gamma transducin 2, ubiquitinconjugating enzyme E2 D1, glutamate metabotropic receptor 1, G-protein signaling modulator 1, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 9, neurotensin, purinergic receptor P2Y1 and ring finger protein 41) were screened from the network. The present study may contribute to the elucidation of the hepatic pathology of T2DM.
