Integrated bioinformatics analysis for the identification of potential key genes affecting the pathogenesis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

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
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) is a typical type of RCC with the worst prognosis among the common epithelial neoplasms of the kidney. However, its molecular pathogenesis remains unknown. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to screen for effective and potential pathogenic biomarkers of CCRCC. The gene expression profile of the GSE16441, GSE36895, GSE40435, GSE46699, GSE66270 and GSE71963 datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. First, the limma package in R language was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in each dataset. The robust and strong DEGs were explored using the robust rank aggregation method. A total of 980 markedly robust DEGs were identified (429 upregulated and 551 downregulated). According to Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis, these DEGs exhibited an obvious enrichment in various cancer-related biological pathways and functions. The Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins database was used for the construction of a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, the Cytoscape MCODE plug-in for module analysis and the cytoHubba plug-in to identify hub genes from the aforementioned DEGs. A total of four key modules were identified in the PPI network. A total of six hub genes, including C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12, bradykinin receptor B2, adenylate cyclase 7, calcium sensing receptor (CASR), kininogen 1 and lysophosphatidic acid receptor 5, were identified. The DEG results of the hub genes were verified using The Cancer Genome Atlas database, and CASR was found to be significantly associated with the prognosis of patients with CCRCC. In conclusion, the present study provided new insight and potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of CCRCC.
