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: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is one of the most prevalent systemic autoimmune diseases, and metabolic syndrome (MetS) is the most common metabolic disorder that contains hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity. Despite clinical evidence suggested potential associations between SLE and MetS, the underlying pathogenesis is yet unclear. Methods: The microarray data sets of SLE and MetS were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. To identify the shared genes between SLE and MetS, the Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) analysis and the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) were conducted. Then, the GO and KEGG analyses were performed, and the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed. Next, Random Forest and LASSO algorithms were used to screen shared hub genes, and a diagnostic model was built using the machine learning technique XG-Boost. Subsequently, CIBERSORT and GSVA were used to estimate the correlation between shared hub genes and immune infiltration as well as metabolic pathways. Finally, the significant hub genes were verified using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. Results: Using limma and WGCNA, we identified 153 shared feature genes, which were enriched in immune- and metabolic-related pathways. Further, 20 shared hub genes were screened and successfully used to build a prognostic model. Those shared hub genes were associated with immunological and metabolic processes in peripheral blood. The scRNA-seq results verified that Conclusion: This study identified shared hub genes and constructed an effective diagnostic model in SLE and MetS.
