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

backgroundThe occurrence and development of breast cancer has a strong correlation with a person's genetics. Therefore, it is important to analyze the genetic factors of breast cancer for future development of potential targeted therapies from the genetic level.

methodsIn this study, we complete an analysis of the relevant protein-protein interaction network relating to breast cancer. This includes three steps, which are breast cancer-relevant genes selection using mutual information method, protein-protein interaction network reconstruction based on the STRING database, and vital genes calculating by nodes centrality analysis.

resultsThe 230 breast cancer-relevant genes were chosen in gene selection to reconstruct the protein-protein interaction network and some vital genes were calculated by node centrality analyses. Node centrality analyses conducted with the top 10 and top 20 values of each metric found 19 and 39 statistically vital genes, respectively. In order to prove the biological significance of these vital genes, we carried out the survival analysis and DNA methylation analysis, inquired about the prognosis in other cancer tissues and the RNA expression level in breast cancer. The results all proved the validity of the selected genes.

conclusionsThese genes could provide a valuable reference in clinical treatment among breast cancer patients.
