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

DNA methylation is closely related to the occurrence and development of many diseases, but its role in obesity is still unclear. This study aimed to find the potential differentially methylated genes associated with obesity occurrence and development. By combining methylation and transcriptome analysis, we identified the key genes in adipose tissue affecting the occurrence and development of obesity and revealed the possible molecular mechanisms involved in obesity pathogenesis. We first screened 14 methylation-related differential genes and verified their expression in adipose tissue by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Seven genes with the same expression pattern were identified as key genes, namely,
