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

backgroundThe objective of the present study was to predict candidate genes with prognostic information for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

methodsWeighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was utilized to build the co-expression network of deferentially expressed genes (DEGs) in GSE32863. Key genes were identified as the intersecting genes of the modules of WGCNA and DEGs. Kaplan-Meier plotter was employed to conduct survival analysis. Enrichment analysis was performed. The expression of key genes in LUAD was validated. Then, we performed

resultsA total of 1,587 DEGs in GSE32863 were identified, including 649 up-regulated genes and 938 down-regulated genes. In coexpression analysis, there were 1,271 hubgenes from the modules that were chosen for further analysis. 15 key genes were identified as the intersecting genes of the modules of WGCNA and DEGs. The expressions of dynein light chain roadblock-type 2 (DYNLRB2) and mouse homolog of ß1 spectrin (SPTBN1) were lower in LUAD, and were associated with survival time of LUAD patients. GSEA results showed that high expressed DYNLRB2 and SPTBN1 were enriched in Drug metabolism cytochrome P450, Cardiac muscle contraction, Retinol metabolism. Down-regulated DYNLRB2 and SPTBN1 were associated with Homologous recombination, Progesterone mediated oocyte maturation, Base excision repair. The

conclusionsOur study suggested that DYNLRB2 and SPTBN1 might be potential tumor suppressor genes and could serve as biomarkers for predicting the prognosis of LUAD patients.
