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

Objectives: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an autoimmune disease of the colon. The aim of this study was to explore the characteristics of immune infiltrates in UC patients and identify immune-related diagnostic biomarkers for UC. Methods: Three gene expression profiles were acquired from the GEO database, followed by identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) by Linear Modeling of Microarray Data. Enrichment analysis of Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Disease Ontology (DO) were performed to analyze the biological functions of DEGs. Subsequently, the single sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was performed to identify immune infiltration characteristics of UC. Correlations between diagnostic genes and immune infiltration were explored to identify markers with the greatest diagnostic potential, and a UC diagnostic model was subsequently constructed. Finally, the prediction performance of the model was quantified by nomogram, non-correlated nomogram, and ROC curve. Results: A total of 3111 DEGs (1,608 up-regulated and 1,503 down-regulated genes) were identified. DEGs were significantly involved in the immune system and UC-related pathways. Immune infiltration profiles of colonic tissue were significantly different between healthy individuals and UC patients. High proportions of resting of aDCs, B cells, CD8 Conclusions: This study identified the immune infiltrate characteristics and 5 immune-related genes for UC. The model based on the immune-related genes facilitates the early diagnosis of UC and provides a basis for the evaluation of the prognosis of UC.
