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: This study sought to identify potential key genes for osteosarcoma metastasis and analyze their immune infiltration patterns using bioinformatic methods. Methods: We obtained transcriptomic data related to osteosarcoma and osteosarcoma with metastasis from the Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatment (TARGET) and The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases and identified the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). We also identified potential key genes for osteosarcoma metastasis by a protein-protein interaction network analysis, and we conducted a Gene Ontology (GO) functional annotation analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis to identify the core genes for prognosis, immune cell infiltration, and drug sensitivity, and the risk prediction and prognosis models of metastasis were constructed. Results: By comparing the transcriptome data of osteosarcomas without metastasis and those with metastasis, a total of 19 core DEGs were identified, and the GO and KEGG analyses revealed an association between these DEGs and the regulation of cell division, secretory granule lumen, the Ras-associated protein 1 (Rap1) signaling pathway, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Compared with other immune cells, macrophage infiltration was predominant in osteosarcoma samples with metastatic osteosarcoma, and insulin-like growth factors-1 ( Conclusions: We constructed a metastasis prediction model with 5 genes (i.e.,
