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

Meningiomas are the most common primary intracranial tumor in adults. However, to date, systemic coexpression analyses for meningiomas fail to explain its pathogenesis. The aim of the present study was to construct coexpression modules and identify potential biomarkers associated with meningioma progression. Weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) was performed based on GSE43290, and module preservation was tested by GSE74385. Functional annotations were performed to analyze biological significance. Hub genes were selected for efficacy evaluations and correlation analyses using two independent cohorts. A total of 14 coexpression modules were identified, and module lightcyan was significantly associated with WHO grades. Functional enrichment analyses of module lightcyan were associated with tumor pathogenesis. The top 10 hub genes were extracted. Ten biomarkers, particularly AHCYL2, FGL2, and KCNMA1, were significantly related to grades and prognosis of meningioma. These findings not only construct coexpression modules leading to the better understanding of its pathogenesis but also provide potential biomarkers that represent specific on tumor grades and identify recurrence, predicting prognosis and progression of meningiomas.
