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

backgroundHeart failure is a health burden responsible for high morbidity and mortality worldwide, and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the most common causes of heart failure. DCM is a disease of the heart muscle and is characterized by enlargement and dilation of at least one ventricle alongside impaired contractility with left ventricular ejection fraction < 40%. It is also associated with abnormalities in cytoskeletal proteins, mitochondrial ATP transporter, microvasculature, and fibrosis. However, the pathogenesis and potential biomarkers of DCM remain to be investigated.

aimTo investigate the candidate genes and pathways involved in DCM patients.

methodsTwo expression datasets (GSE3585 and GSE5406) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the DCM patients and healthy individuals were identified using the R package "linear models for microarray data." The pathways with common DEGs were analyzed

resultsIn total, 97 DEGs (47 upregulated and 50 downregulated) were identified. GO analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly enriched in "response to growth factor," "extracellular matrix," and "extracellular matrix structural constituent." KEGG pathway analysis indicated that the DEGs were mainly enriched in "protein digestion and absorption" and "interleukin 17 (IL-17) signaling pathway." The PPI network suggested that collagen type III alpha 1 chain (COL3A1) and COL1A2 contribute to the pathogenesis of DCM. Additionally, visualization of the interactions between miRNAs and the hub genes revealed that hsa-miR-5682 and hsa-miR-4500 interacted with both COL3A1 and COL1A2, and thus these miRNAs might play roles in DCM. Immune cell infiltration analysis revealed that DCM patients had more infiltrated plasma cells and fewer infiltrated B memory cells, T follicular helper cells, and resting dendritic cells.

conclusionCOL1A2 and COL3A1 and their targeting miRNAs, hsa-miR-5682 and hsa-miR-4500, may play critical roles in the pathogenesis of DCM, which are closely related to the IL-17 signaling pathway and acute inflammatory response. These results may provide useful clues for the diagnosis and treatment of DCM.
