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 cancer is a leading cause of morbidity diseases worldwide, but the key mechanisms of lung cancer remain elusive. This study aims to integrate of GSE 118370 and GSE 32863 profile and identify the key genes and pathway involved in human lung adenocarcinoma.

methodsR software (RStudio, Version info: R 3.2.3, Forrester, USA) were utilized to find the differentially expressed genes. All the differentially expressed genes were analyzed by gene ontology, kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes. Protein-protein interaction networks were constructed by STRING database and analyzed by Cytohubber and Module. The cancer genome atlas database was used to verification the expression of hub genes. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR was used to verify the bio-information results.

resultsSixty-four lung adenocarcinoma and 64 adjacent normal tissues were used for integration analysis. Five hundred ninety-nine co-expression genes were locked. Biological processes mainly enriched in angiogenesis. Cellular component focused on extracellular exosome and molecular function aimed on protein disulfide isomerase activity. Cytohubber analysis showed that GNG11, FPR2, P4HB, PIK3R1, CDC20, ADCY4, TIMP1, IL6, CXC chemokine ligand (CXCL)12, and GAS6 acted as the hub genes during lung adenocarcinoma. Module analysis presented Chemokine signaling pathway was a key pathway. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR showed that the expression level of GNG11, FPR2, PIK3R1, ADCY4, IL6, CXCL12, and GAS6 were significantly decreased and P4HB, CDC20 and TIMP1 were increased in human adenocarcinoma tissues (P < .05). The cancer genome atlas online analysis showed GNG11 was not associated with survival.

conclusionsThis study firstly reported GNG11 acting as a hub gene in adenocarcinoma. GNG11 could be used as a biomarker for human adenocarcinoma. Chemokine signaling pathway might play important roles in lung adenocarcinoma.
