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

Background: The etiology of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is unclear. Bioinformatics algorithms may help to explore the underlying mechanisms. Therefore, we aimed to screen diagnostic biomarkers and identify the landscape of immune infiltration in DCM. Methods: First, the CIBERSORT algorithm was used to excavate the proportion of immune-infiltration cells in DCM and normal myocardial tissues. Meanwhile, the Pearson analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to identify immune heterogeneity in different tissues. The Wilcoxon test, LASSO regression, and machine learning method were conducted to identify the hub immune cells. In addition, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened by the limma package, and DEGs were analyzed for functional enrichment. In the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, multiple algorithms were used to calculate the score of each DEG for screening the hub genes. Subsequently, external datasets were used to further validate the expression of hub genes, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy. Finally, we examined the expression of hub biomarkers in animal models. Results: A total of 108 DEGs were screened, and these genes may be related to biological processes such as cytolysis, positive regulation of cytokine secretion, etc. Two types of hub immune cells [activated natural killer (NK) cells and eosinophils] and four hub genes ( Conclusion:
