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

The goal of this study is to reveal the hub genes and molecular mechanisms of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) based on the genome-wide RNA sequencing dataset. The RNA sequencing dataset of COVID-19 ARDS was obtained from GSE163426. A total of 270 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between COVID-19 ARDS and control group patients. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs suggests that these DEGs may be involved in the following biological processes: response to cytokine, G-protein coupled receptor activity, ionotropic glutamate receptor signalling pathway and G-protein coupled receptor signalling pathway. By using the weighted correlation network analysis approach to analyse these DEGs, 10 hub DEGs that may play an important role in COVID-19 ARDS were identified. A total of 67 potential COVID-19 ARDS targetted drugs were identified by a complement map analysis. Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that the levels of T cells CD4 naive, T cells follicular helper, macrophages M1 and eosinophils in COVID-19 ARDS patients were significantly different from those in control group patients. In conclusion, this study identified 10 COVID-19 ARDS-related hub DEGs and numerous potential molecular mechanisms through a comprehensive analysis of the RNA sequencing dataset and also revealed the difference in immune cell infiltration of COVID-19 ARDS.
