Integrative analysis of key candidate genes and signaling pathways in autoimmune thyroid dysfunction related to anti-CTLA-4 therapy by bioinformatics.
Article in Investigational new drugs, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), the first immune checkpoint to be targeted clinically, has provided an effective treatment option for various malignancies. However, the clinical advantages associated with CTLA-4 inhibitors can be offset by the potentially severe immune-related adverse events (IRAEs), including autoimmune thyroid dysfunction. To investigate the candidate genes and signaling pathways involving in autoimmune thyroid dysfunction related to anti-CTLA-4 therapy, integrated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were extracted from the intersection of genes from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets and text mining. The functional enrichment was performed by gene ontology (GO) annotation and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, module enrichment, and hub gene identification were constructed and visualized by the online Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) and Cytoscape software. A total of 22 and 17 integrated human DEGs in hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism group related to anti-CTLA-4 therapy were identified, respectively. Functional enrichment analysis revealed 24 GO terms and 1 KEGG pathways in the hypothyroid group and 21 GO terms and 2 KEGG pathways in the hyperthyroid group. After PPI network construction, the top five hub genes associated with hypothyroidism were extracted, including ALB, MAPK1, SPP1, PPARG, and MIF, whereas those associated with hyperthyroidism were ALB, FCGR2B, CD44, LCN2, and CD74. The identification of the candidate key genes and enriched signaling pathways provides potential biomarkers for autoimmune thyroid dysfunction related to anti-CTLA-4 therapy and might contribute to the future diagnosis and management of IRAEs for cancer patients.
