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

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is common in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), however, the relevant mechanism remains elusive. The whole blood gene expression profiles of healthy control, patients with DM, patients with DM and CHD (DMCHD) were used to performed weight gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA) to identify the gene modules associated with DM-related atherogenesis. The candidate module was significantly involved in immune- and T cell activity-related biological process. GSEA results suggested that lysosome and apoptosis were enriched in DM and DMCHD samples. The protein-protein-KEGG pathway network may reveal the potential transcriptional regulatory network involving in DM-related atherosclerosis. Nineteen genes (RTKN, DCP1B, PDZD4, CACNA2D2, TSEN54, PVRIG, PLEKHF1, NKG7, ZAP70, NUDCD3, SLAMF6, CCDC107, NAG6, ZDHHC14, EOMES, VIL2, WDR54, DMAP1, and PMPCA) were considered as DM-related atherogenesis genes (DRAGs). The Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA) score of the DRAG set gradually increased in the control, DM and DMCHD. ROC curve analysis showed that ZAP70, TSEN54, and PLEKHF1 may be potential blood circulation biomarkers for DMCHD in patients with DM. In conclusion, we identified nineteen hallmark genes involving in DM-related atherogenesis and constructed a potential transcriptional regulatory network involving in DM-related atherosclerosis.
