Atherosclerosis prediction by microarray-based DNA methylation analysis.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Using a series of DNA methylation analysis, pathogenesis was investigated to identify the specific DNA methylation markers for diagnosing atherosclerosis. Firstly, with the chip platform of Illumina Human Methylation 450 BeadChip, a total of 1,458 CpGs, covering 971 differential methylated genes were extracted with stringent filtering criteria. Secondly, hierarchical clustering as a heat map was used to check on the dependability of differential methylated genes. Thirdly, the related GO terms and pathways were enriched by up- and down-methylated genes, respectively, after verifying the capacity of these differential methylated genes to distinguish between atherosclerosis and healthy controls. In total, 971 differential DNA methylated genes were identified (1,458 CpGs). Several important function regions were also identified, including cell adhesion, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter. This study indicates that patients with atherosclerosis have high levels of DNA methylation, which is promising for early diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerosis.
