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

aimsThe various diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) raised problem for PCOS research worldwide. PCOS has been demonstrated to be significantly associated with immune response. We aimed to identify several immune-related biomarkers and construct a nomogram model for diagnosis in PCOS.

methodsThe mRNA expression data were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Significant immune-related genes were identified to be the biomarkers for the diagnosis of PCOS using random forest model (RF), support vector machine model (SVM) and generalized linear model (GLM). The key biomarkers were selected from the optimal model and were utilized to construct a diagnostic nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was used to evaluate diagnostic ability of nomogram. Moreover, the relative proportion of 22 immune cell types was calculated by CIBERSORT algorithm.

resultsFour immune-related biomarkers (cAMP, S100A9, TLR8 and IL6R) were demonstrated to be highly expressed in PCOS. The nomogram constructed on the ground of the four key biomarkers showed perfect performance in diagnosis of PCOS, whose AUC were greater than 0.7. Higher infiltrating abundance of neutrophils, resting NK cells and activated dendritic cells were observed in PCOS and were tightly associated with the four key biomarkers.

conclusionsThis study identified several immune-related diagnostic biomarkers for PCOS patients. The diagnostic nomogram constructed based the biomarkers provide a theory foundation for clinical application. Multiple immune cells were associated with the expression of these four biomarkers and might played a vital role in the procession of PCOS.
