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

Radiotherapy is an effective treatment for local solid tumors, but the mechanism of damage to human body caused by radiation therapy needs further study. In this study, gene expression profiles of human peripheral blood samples exposed to different doses and rates of ionizing radiation (IR) were used for bioinformatics analysis to investigate the mechanism of IR damage and radiation-induced bystander effect (RIBE). Differentially expressed genes analysis, weighted gene correlation network analysis, functional enrichment analysis, hypergeometric test, gene set enrichment analysis, and gene set variation analysis were applied to analyze the data. Moreover, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to identify core genes of IR damage. Weighted gene correlation network analysis identified 3 modules associated with IR damage, 2 were positively correlated and 1 was negatively correlated. The analysis showed that the positively correlated modules were significantly involved in apoptosis and p53 signaling pathway, and ESR1, ATM, and MYC were potential transcription factors regulating these modules. Thus, the study suggested that apoptosis and p53 signaling pathway may be the potential molecular mechanisms of IR damage and RIBE, which could be driven by ESR1, ATM, and MYC.
