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

Recent studies have shown that different signaling pathways are involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), with complex molecular connections existing between these pathways. Autophagy is crucial for the degradation and production of pathogenic proteins in AD, and it shows link with other AD-related pathways. However, current methods for identifying potential therapeutic targets for AD are primarily based on single-gene analysis or a single signal pathway, both of which are somewhat limited. Finding other methods is necessary for providing novel underlying AD therapeutic targets. Therefore, given the central role of autophagy in AD and its interplay with its pathways, we aimed to identify prognostic genes related to autophagy within and between these pathways based on pathway crosstalk analysis. The method of pathway analysis based on global influence (PAGI) was applied to find the feature mRNAs involved in the crosstalk between autophagy and other AD-related pathways. Subsequently, the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to construct a co-expression module of feature mRNAs and differential lncRNAs. Finally, based on 2 autophagy-related crosstalk genes (CD40 and SMAD7), we constructed a prognosis model by multivariate Cox regression, which could predict the overall survival of AD patients with medium-to-high accuracy. In conclusion, we provided an effective method for extracting autophagy-related significant genes based on pathway crosstalk in AD. We found the biomarkers valuable to the AD prognosis, which may also play an essential role in the development and treatment of AD.
