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: Although many pathological mechanisms and etiological hypotheses of acute unilateral vestibulopathy (AUVP) have been reported, but the actual etiology remains to be elucidated. Objective: This study was based on comprehensive bioinformatics to identify the critical genes of AUVP and explore its pathological mechanism. Methods: Gene expression profiles of AUVP and normal samples were collected from GSE146230 datasets of the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was constructed, and the WGCNA R-package extracted significant modules. The limma R-package was applied to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The common genes of practical modules and DEGs were screened for GO and KEGG pathways analysis. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) layout and hub genes validation was created by Cytoscape software using the link from the STRING database. The functions of hub genes were predicted through the CTD (comparative genetics database). Results: A total of 332 common genes were screened from practical modules and DEGs. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that these genes were predominantly associated with inflammation and infection. After construction of PPI, expressions of hub genes, and drawing ROC curves, LILRB2, FPR1, AQP9, and LILRA1 are highly expressed in AUVP ( Conclusion: LILRB2, FPR1, AQP9, and LILRA1 may play essential roles in developing AUVP, providing new ideas for diagnosing and treating AUVP.
