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

Primary aldosteronism is the most common form of secondary hypertension, and aldosteronoma makes up a significant proportion of primary aldosteronism cases. Aldosteronoma is also called aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA). Although there have been many studies about APA, the pathogenesis of this disease is not yet fully understood. In this study, we aimed to find out the difference of gene expression patterns between APA and nonfunctional adrenocortical adenoma (NFAA) using a weighted gene coexpression network (WGCNA) and differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis; only the genes that meet the corresponding standards of both methods were defined as real hub genes and then used for further analysis. Twenty-nine real hub genes were found out, most of which were enriched in the phospholipid metabolic process.
