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

Immune cells and immune microenvironment play important in the evolution of sepsis. This study aimed to explore hub genes related to the abundance of immune cell infiltration in sepsis. The GEOquery package is used to download and organize data from the GEO database. A total of 61 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between sepsis samples and normal samples were obtained through the 'limma' package. T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, monocytes, megakaryocytes, dendritic cells (DCs), and B cells formed six distinct clusters on the t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) plot generated using the Seurat R package. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) enrichment analysis showed that sepsis samples and normal samples were related to Neutrophil Degranulation, Modulators of Tcr Signaling and T Cell Activation, IL 17 Pathway, T Cell Receptor Signaling Pathway, Ctl Pathway, Immunoregulatory Interactions Between a Lymphoid and A Non-Lymphoid Cell. GO analysis and KEGG analysis of immune-related genes showed that the intersection genes were mainly associated with Immune-related signaling pathways. Seven hub genes (CD28, CD3D, CD2, CD4, IL7R, LCK, and CD3E) were screened using Maximal Clique Centrality, Maximum neighborhood component, and Density of Maximum Neighborhood Component algorithms. The lower expression of the six hub genes (CD28, CD3D, CD4, IL7R, LCK, and CD3E) was observed in sepsis samples. We observed the significant difference of several immune cell between sepsis samples and control samples. Finally, we carried out
