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

This study aims to determine hub genes related to the incidence and prognosis of EGFR-mutant (MT) lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) with weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA). From The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases, we used 253 EGFR-MT LUAD samples and 38 normal lung tissue samples. At the same time, GSE19188 was additionally included to verify the accuracy of the predicted gene. To discover differentially expressed genes (DEGs), the R package "limma" was used. The R packages "WGCNA" and "survival" were used to perform WGCNA and survival analyses, respectively. The functional analysis was carried out with the R package "clusterProfiler." In total, 1450 EGFR-MT-specific DEGs were found, and 7 tumor-related modules were marked with WGCNA. We found 6 hub genes in DEGs that overlapped with the tumor-related modules, and the overexpression level of B3GNT3 was significantly associated with the worse OS (overall survival) of the EGFR-MT LUAD patients (
