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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a type of scarring lung disease characterized by a chronic, progressive, and irreversible decline in lung function. The genetic basis of IPF remains elusive. A transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) of IPF was performed by FUSION using gene expression weights of three tissues combined with a large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) dataset, totally involving 2,668 IPF cases and 8,591 controls. Significant genes identified by TWAS were then subjected to gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analysis. The overlapped GO terms and pathways between enrichment analysis of TWAS significant genes and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the genome-wide mRNA expression profiling of IPF were also identified. For TWAS significant genes, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and clustering modules analyses were further conducted using STRING and Cytoscape. Overall, TWAS identified a group of candidate genes for IPF under the Bonferroni corrected
