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

backgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. The etiology and pathophysiology of LUAD remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to identify the key genes, miRNAs and transcription factors (TFs) associated with the pathogenesis and prognosis of LUAD.

methodsThree gene expression profiles (GSE43458, GSE32863, GSE74706) of LUAD were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by GEO2R.The Gene Ontology (GO) terms, pathways, and protein-protein interactions (PPIs) of these DEGs were analyzed. Bases on DEGs, the miRNAs and TFs were predicted. Furthermore, TF-gene-miRNA co-expression network was constructed to identify key genes, miRNAs and TFs by bioinformatic methods. The expressions and prognostic values of key genes, miRNAs and TFs were carried out through The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and Kaplan Meier-plotter (KM) online dataset.

resultsA total of 337 overlapped DEGs (75 upregulated and 262 downregulated) of LUAD were identified from the three GSE datasets. Moreover, 851 miRNAs and 29 TFs were identified to be associated with these DEGs. In total, 10 hub genes, 10 key miRNAs and 10 key TFs were located in the central hub of the TF-gene-miRNA co-expression network, and validated using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Specifically, seven genes (

conclusionsOur study constructed a regulatory network of TF-gene-miRNA in LUAD, which may provide new insights about the interaction between genes, miRNAs and TFs in the pathogenesis of LUAD, and identify potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets for LUAD.
