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 explore the molecular mechanism and search for candidate biomarkers in the gene expression profile of IBD patients associated with the response to anti-TNFα agents.

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) of response vs non-response IBD patients in datasets GSE12251, GSE16879, and GSE23597 were integrated using NetworkAnalyst. We conducted functional enrichment analysis of Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway and extracted hub genes from the protein-protein interaction network. The proportion of immune cell types was estimated via CIBERSORT. ROC curve analysis and binomial Lasso regression were applied to assess the expression level of hub genes in datasets GSE12251, GSE16879, and GSE23597, and another two datasets GSE107865 and GSE42296.

resultsA total of 287 DEGs were obtained from the integrated dataset. They were enriched in 14 Gene Ontology terms and 11 KEGG pathways. Polarization from M2 to M1 macrophages was relatively high in non-response individuals. We found nine hub genes (TLR4, TLR1, TLR8, CCR1, CD86, CCL4, HCK, and FCGR2A), mainly related to the interaction between Toll-like Receptor (TLR) pathway and FcγR signaling in non-response anti-TNFα individuals. FCGR2A, HCK, TLR1, TLR4, TLR8, and CCL4 show great value for prediction in intestinal tissue. Besides, FCGR2A, HCK, and TLR8 might be candidate blood biomarkers of anti-TNFα non-response IBD patients.

conclusionOver-activated interaction between FcγR-TLR axis in the innate immune cells of IBD patients might be used to identify non-response individuals and increased our understanding of resistance to anti-TNFα therapy.
