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

backgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. In recent years, the incidence of HCC induced by NAFLD is growing rapidly.

objectiveTo screen for new pathogenic genes and related pathways both in NAFLD and HCC, and to explore the pathogenesis of progression from NAFLD to HCC.

methodsGene expression microarrays (GSE74656, GSE62232) were used for identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Functional enrichment and pathway enrichment analyses indicated that these DEGs were related to cell cycle and extracellular exosome, which were closely related to NAFLD and HCC development. We then used the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) to establish the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and visualized them in Cytoscape. And the overall survival (OS) analysis and gene expression validation in TCGA of hub genes was performed.

resultsSeven hub genes, including CDK1, HSP90AA1, MAD2L1, PRKCD, ITGB3BP, CEP192, and RHOB were identified. Finally, we verified the expression level of ITGB3BP and CEP192 by quantitative real-time PCR in vitro.

conclusionsThe present study implied possible DEGs, especially the new gene CEP192, in the progression of NAFLD developing to HCC. Further rigorous experiments are required to verify the above results.
