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

objectiveThis study aims to identify novel candidate genes associated with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).

methodsA transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) was performed by integrating the genome-wide association study dataset of osteonecrosis (ON) in the UK Biobank with pre-computed mRNA expression reference weights of muscle skeleton (MS) and blood. The ON-associated genes identified by TWAS were further subjected to gene ontology (GO) analysis by the DAVID tool. Finally, a trans-omics comparative analysis of TWAS and genome-wide mRNA expression profiling was conducted to identify the common genes and the GO terms shared by both DNA-level TWAS and mRNA-level expression profile for ONFH.

resultsTWAS totally identified 564 genes that were with

conclusionSeveral ONFH-associated genes and GO terms were identified by integrating TWAS and mRNA expression profiling. It provides novel clues to reveal the pathogenesis of ONFH.
