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

Introduction: Crohn's disease is characterized of dysregulated inflammatory and immune reactions. The role of the NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in Crohn's disease remains largely unknown. Methods: The microarray-based transcriptomic data and corresponding clinical information of GSE100833 and GSE16879 were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Identification of in the NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes and construction of LASSO regression model. Immune landscape analysis was evaluated with ssGSEA. Classification of Crohn's-disease samples based on NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes with ConsensusClusterPlus. Functional enrichment analysis, gene set variation analysis (GSVA) and drug-gene interaction network. Results: The expressions of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes were increased in diseased tissues, and higher expressions of NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes were correlated with generally enhanced immune cell infiltration, immune-related pathways and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-gene expressions. The gene-based signature showed well performance in the diagnosis of Crohn's disease. Moreover, consensus clustering identified two Crohn's disease clusters based on NLRP3 inflammasome-related genes, and cluster 2 was with higher expressions of the genes. Cluster 2 demonstrated upregulated activities of immune environment in Crohn's disease. Furthermore, four key hub genes were identified and potential drugs were explored for the treatment of Crohn's disease. Conclusions: Our findings indicate that NLRP3 inflammasome and its related genes could regulate immune cells and responses, as well as involve in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease from transcriptomic aspects. These findings provide in silico insights into the diagnosis and treatment of Crohn's disease and might assist in the clinical decision-making process.
