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

backgroundWe aimed to identify the key differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with poor prognosis in gastric cancer (GC) and to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms in order to provide a therapeutic target for this disease.

methodsThe DEGs common in two datasets, GSE54129 and GSE79973, were screened. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were then performed for these DEGs using DAVID's tool. STRING and the Cytoscope software were also used to analyze the protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of the DEGs common between the two datasets.

resultsA total of 164 common DEGs were identified from GSE79973 and GSE54129 datasets, 42 were up-regulated and 122 were down-regulated in GC. KEGG analysis demonstrated that up-regulated DEGs were mainly enriched for focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, protein digestion and absorption, and vascular smooth muscle contraction, while down-regulated DEGs were enriched for chemical carcinogenesis, metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, drug metabolism-cytochrome P450, and retinol metabolism (P<0.05). Obtained PPI network for the 164 DEGs via Cytotype software, using MCODE app of Cytotype software we identified 13 hub genes. Twelve of these genes were found to be associated with poor prognosis in GC by survival analysis. Post validation by the GEPIA, Oncomine, and Human Protein Atlas databases, eight genes (
