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

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a complex and devastating complication of diabetes mellitus that are usually stagnant in the inflammatory phase. However, oral wound healing, which is characterized by a rapid and scarless healing process, is regarded an ideal model of wound healing. Thus, we performed a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of the previously published data regarding oral ulcers and DFUs and found that compared to oral wound healing, the activated pathways of DFUs were enriched in cellular metabolism-related pathways but lacked the activation of inflammatory and immune-related pathways. We also found that CXCL11, DDX60, IFI44, and IFI44L were remarkable nodes since they had the most connections with other members of the module. Meanwhile, CXCL10, IRF7, and DDX58 together formed a closed-loop relationship and occupied central positions in the entire network. The real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot was applied to validate the gene expression of the hub immune-related genes in the DFU tissues, it was found that CXCL11, IFI44, IFI44L, CXCL10 and IRF7 have a significant difference compared with normal wound tissues. Our research reveals some novel potential immune-related biomarkers and provides new insights into the molecular basis of this debilitating disease.
