Identifying biomarkers for evaluating wound extent and age in the contused muscle of rats using microarray analysis: a pilot study.
Article in PeerJ, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Wound age estimation is still one of the most important and significant challenges in forensic practice. The extent of wound damage greatly affects the accuracy and reliability of wound age estimation, so it is important to find effective biomarkers to help diagnose wound degree and wound age. In the present study, the gene expression profiles of both mild and severe injuries in 33 rats were assayed at 0, 1, 3, 24, 48, and 168 hours using the Affymetrix microarray system to provide biomarkers for the evaluation of wound age and the extent of the wound. After obtaining thousands of differentially expressed genes, a principal component analysis, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, and a time-series analysis were used to select the most predictive prognostic genes. Finally, 15 genes were screened for evaluating the extent of wound damage, and the top 60 genes were also screened for wound age estimation in mild and severe injury. Selected indicators showed good diagnostic performance for identifying the extent of the wound and wound age in a Fisher discriminant analysis. A function analysis showed that the candidate genes were mainly related to cell proliferation and the inflammatory response, primarily IL-17 and the Hematopoietic cell lineage signalling pathway. The results revealed that these genes play an essential role in wound-healing and yield helpful and valuable potential biomarkers for further targeted studies.
