Integrated bioinformatics analysis to screen hub genes in the lymph node metastasis of thyroid cancer.

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.
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
Thyroid cancer (TC) is one of the most common types of malignancy of the endocrine-system. At present, there is a lack of effective methods to predict neck lymph node metastasis (LNM) in TC. The present study compared the expression profiles from The Cancer Genome Atlas between N1M0 and N0M0 subgroups in each T1-4 stages TC in order to identify the four groups of TC LNM-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Subsequently, DEGs were combined to obtain a total of 493 integrated DEGs by using the method of Robust Rank Aggregation. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms of LNM were investigated. The results from Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses demonstrated that the identified DEGs may promote LNM via numerous pathways, including extracellular matrix-receptor interaction, PI3K-AKT signaling pathway and focal adhesion. Following construction of a protein-protein interaction network, the significance score for each gene was calculated and seven hub genes were screened, including interleukin 6, actinin α2, collagen type I α 1 chain, actin α1, calbindin 2, thrombospondin 1 and parathyroid hormone. These genes were predicted to serve crucial roles in TC with LNM. The results from the present study could therefore improve the understanding of LNM in TC. In addition, the seven DEGs identified may be considered as potential novel targets for the development of biomarkers that could be used in the diagnosis and therapy of TC.
