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

objectiveThe purpose of this study is to identify novel biomarkers for the prognosis of Ewing's sarcoma based on bioinformatics analysis.

methodsThe GSE63157 and GSE17679 datasets contain patient and healthy control microarray data that were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and analyzed through R language software to obtain differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Firstly, Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) functional enrichment, protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, and Cytoscape Molecular Complex Detection (MCODE) plug-in were then used to compute the highest scores of the module. After survival analysis, the hub genes were lastly obtained from the two module genes.

resultsA total of 1181 DEGs were identified from the two GSEs. Through MCODE and survival analysis, we obtain 53 DEGs from the module and 29 overall survival- (OS-) related genes. ZBTB16 was the only downregulated gene after Venn diagrams. Survival analysis indicates that there was a significant correlation between the high expression of ZBTB16 and the OS of Ewing's sarcoma (ES), and the low expression group had an unfavorable OS when compared to the high expression group.

conclusionsHigh expression of ZBTB16 may serve as a predictor biomarker of poor prognosis in ES patients.
