Identification of Driver Genes and Interaction Networks Related to Brain Metastasis in Breast Cancer Patients.
Article in Disease markers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Brain metastasis is a common complication of breast cancer (BC); however, the interaction networks and driver genes that lead to brain metastasis in BC patients are still unknown. In this study, we employed bioinformatics analyses to discover hub genes and long noncoding RNA- (lncRNA-) protein-coding gene (PCG) networks related to BC brain metastasis (BCBM). Firstly, we screened differentially expressed PCGs and lncRNAs in normal and BCBM samples using the GSE52604 dataset. Subsequently, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and overall interaction networks were constructed, and topological degrees were analyzed to identify potential driver genes. After identifying the hub pathogenic module by weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA), the genes in the hub module were evaluated for functional enrichment. Finally, we constructed multiple interaction networks associated with BCBM and identified seven potential driver genes, out of which MYBPC1 was the only overlapping gene in the adopted analytical methods. It is worth mentioning that we validated the prognostic value of the identified hub genes in TCGA database and evaluated the prediction ability of MYBPC1 in the GSE38057 dataset. In addition, the CIBERSORT algorithm revealed changes in the immune microenvironment. In conclusion, the driver PCGs and lncRNAs in the interaction networks can be utilized as a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of brain metastasis in BC patients.
