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

objectiveOsteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic arthropathy that frequently occurs in the middle-aged and elderly population. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism of OA based on autophagy theory.

designWe downloaded the gene expression profile from the Gene Expression Omnibus repository. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to the keyword "autophagy" were identified using the scanGEO online analysis tool. DEGs representing the same expression trend were screened using the MATCH function. Clinical synovial specimens were collected for identification, pathological diagnosis, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis. Differential expression of mRNAs in the synovial membrane tissues and chondrocyte monolayer samples from OA patients was used to identify potential OA biomarkers. Protein-protein interactions were established by the STRING website and visualized with Cytoscape. Functional and pathway enrichment analyses were performed using the Metascape database.

resultsGABARAPL1, GABARAPL2, and ATG13 were obtained as co-expressed autogenes in the 3 data sets. They were all downregulated among OA synovial tissues compared with non-OA synovial tissues (

conclusionsThese results offer an important molecular understanding of the key transcriptional regulatory genes and modules based on the network of potential autophagy mechanisms in human OA.
