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

Obesity is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the mechanisms underlying this crosstalk are still being uncovered. Co-differentially expressed genes (co-DEGs) of AF and obesity microarrays were identified by bioinformatics analysis. Subsequently, functional enrichment, cell-type enrichment, and protein-protein interaction network analyses of co-DEGs were carried out. Then, we validated the hub genes by qRT-PCR of patients' blood samples. Finally, CIBERSORT was utilized to evaluate the AF microarray to determine immune infiltration and the correlation between validated hub genes and immune cells. A total of 23 co-up-regulated DEGs in AF and obesity microarrays were identified, and these genes were enriched in inflammation- and immune-related function. The enriched cells were whole blood, CD33+ myeloid, and CD14+ monocytes. The hub genes were identified as
