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 study sought to construct a network of the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and potential therapeutic target genes of cerebral palsy based on data sets from high-throughput sequencing and the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP). Methods: A transcriptome sequencing data set (GSE183021) of blood samples from children with cerebral palsy was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the cerebral palsy blood samples and control blood samples were screened. The TCM active components and target genes were identified from the TCMSP. We constructed a network of the active ingredients of TCM and the cerebral palsy DEGs. Results: Using a |log2 fold change| ≥1 and a false discovery rate <0.05 as the screening criteria for the blood samples of 5 children with cerebral palsy and 5 control participants, 399 DEGs were identified. In the cerebral palsy blood samples, 209 genes were upregulated, and 190 genes were downregulated. The effective components of Angelica sinensis, Shenjincao, and Achyranthes bidentata, targeted 158 genes, and 49 genes crossed with the cerebral palsy DEGs. A network was constructed with the active ingredients of Angelica sinensis, Shenjincao, and Achyranthes bidentata and the DEGs of the cerebral palsy as nodes. Conclusions: The effective components of Angelica sinensis, Shenjincao, Achyranthes sinensis, and interact closely with the cerebral palsy DEGs. Based on the interaction network, the pharmacological mechanism of TCM in the treatment of cerebral palsy can be elucidated and new therapeutic targets discovered.
