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: A lot of studies have revealed that chronic urticaria (CU) is closely linked with COVID-19. However, there is a lack of further study at the gene level. This research is aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism of COVID-19-related CU Methods: The RNA expression profile datasets of CU (GSE72540) and COVID-19 (GSE164805) were used for the training data and GSE57178 for the verification data. After recognizing the shared differently expressed genes (DEGs) of COVID-19 and CU, genes enrichment, WGCNA, PPI network, and immune infiltration analyses were performed. In addition, machine learning LASSO regression was employed to identify key genes from hub genes. Finally, the networks, gene-TF-miRNA-lncRNA, and drug-gene, of key genes were constructed, and RNA expression analysis was utilized for verification. Results: We recognized 322 shared DEGs, and the functional analyses displayed that they mainly participated in immunomodulation of COVID-19-related CU. 9 hub genes (CD86, FCGR3A, AIF1, CD163, CCL4, TNF, CYBB, MMP9, and CCL3) were explored through the WGCNA and PPI network. Moreover, FCGR3A, TNF, and CCL3 were further identified as key genes Conclusions: To sum up, FCGR3A, TNF, and CCL3 might be potential biomarkers for COVID-19-related CU, and the common pathways and related molecules we explored in this study might provide new ideas for further mechanistic research.
