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

backgroundWith the rapid development of genomics and molecular biology, not only have biochemical indicators been used as tumour markers, but many new molecular markers have emerged. Epigenetic abnormalities are a new type of molecular marker, and DNA methylation is an important part of epigenetics.

objectiveThis study used weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) to analyse key methylation-driven genes in breast cancer.

methodsThe RNA-seq transcriptome data, DNA methylation data, and clinical information data of breast cancer patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and the MethylMix R package was used to screen methylation-driven genes in breast cancer. The ClusterProfiler package and enrichplot package in R software were used to further analyse the function and signalling pathway of methylation-driven genes. Through univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, methylation-driver genes related to prognostic were obtained, a prognostic model was constructed and prognostic characteristics were analysed.

resultsThe 17 methylation-driven genes related to prognosis were obtained by the WGCNA method in breast cancer, and the prognostic significance of these methylation-driven genes was determined by transcriptome and methylation combined survival analysis. Analysis of functions and signalling pathways showed that these genes were mainly enriched in biological processes and signalling pathway. Through univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, a prognostic model of 5 methylation-driven genes was constructed.

conclusionsThe AUC of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of this model was 0.784, showing that the model had a good prediction effect. Based on WGCNA screening, it was found that only CDO1 was the key methylation-driven gene for prognosis in breast cancer, indicating that CDO1 may be an important indicator of the prognosis of breast cancer patients.
