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

backgroundMacrophages play an important role in the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis. However, few existing studies have deliberately analyzed the changes in characteristic genes in the process of macrophage phenotype transformation.

methodCarotid atherosclerotic plaque single-cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing data were analyzed to define the cells involved and determine their transcriptomic characteristics. KEGG enrichment analysis, CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE, support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) were applied to bulk sequencing data. All data were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO).

resultNine cell clusters were identified. M1 macrophages, M2 macrophages, and M2/M1 macrophages were identified as three clusters within the macrophages. According to pseudotime analysis, M2/M1 macrophages and M2 macrophages can be transformed into M1 macrophages. The ROC curve values of the six genes in the test group were statistically significant (AUC (IL1RN): 0.899, 95% CI: 0.764-0.990; AUC (NRP1): 0.817, 95% CI: 0.620-0.971; AUC (TAGLN): 0.846, 95% CI: 0.678-0.971; AUC (SPARCL1): 0.825, 95% CI: 0.620-0.988; AUC (EMP2): 0.808, 95% CI: 0.630-0.947; AUC (ACTA2): 0.784, 95% CI: 0.591-0.938). The atherosclerosis prediction model showed significant statistical significance in both the train group (AUC: 0.909, 95% CI: 0.842-0.967) and the test group (AUC: 0.812, 95% CI: 0.630-0.966).
