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

backgroundAortic dissection is one of the most detrimental cardiovascular diseases with a high risk of mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to examine the key genes and microRNAs associated with Stanford type A aortic dissection (AAD).

methodsThe expression data of AAD and healthy samples were downloaded from two microarray datasets in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to identify highly preserved modules by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were selected and functionally annotated. The predicted interactions between the DEGs and DEmiRNAs were further illustrated.

resultsIn two highly preserved modules, 459 DEGs were identified. These DEGs were functionally enriched in the HIF1, Notch, and PI3K/Akt pathways. Furthermore, 6 DEmiRNAs that were enriched in the regulation of vasculature development and HIF1 pathway, were predicted to target 23 DEGs.

conclusionsOur study presented several promising modulators, both DEGs and DEmiRNAs, as well as possible pathological pathways for AAD, which narrows the scope for further fundamental research.
