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

backgroundST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The mortality rate of heart attacks has decreased due to various preventive factors and the development of early diagnostic resuscitation measures, but the long-term prognosis remains poor. The present study aimed to identify novel serum biomarkers in STEMI patients and explored a possible new mechanism of STEMI from an immune molecular angle with bioinformatics analysis.

methodsGene expression profiles were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differential gene analysis, machine learning algorithms, gene set enrichment analysis, and immune cell infiltration analysis were conducted using R software.

resultsWe identified 146 DEGs (differentially expressed genes) in the integrated dataset between the STEMI and CAD (coronary artery disease) groups. Immune infiltration analysis indicated that eleven cell types were differentially infiltrated. Through correlation analysis, we further screened 25 DEGs that showed a high correlation with monocytes and neutrophils. Afterwards, five genes consistently selected by all three machine learning algorithms were considered candidate genes. Finally, we identified a hub gene (ADM) as a biomarker of STEMI. AUC curves showed that ADM had more than 80% high accuracy in all datasets.

conclusionsIn this study, we explored a potentially new mechanism of STEMI from an immune molecular perspective, which might provide insights into the pathogenesis of STEMI. ADM positively correlated with monocytes and neutrophils, suggesting its potential role in the immune response during STEMI. Additionally, we validated the diagnostic performance of ADM in two external datasets, which could help to develop new diagnostic tools or therapeutic strategies.
