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

backgroundKidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is the most prevalent type of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), with a high incidence and mortality rate. There is a lack of sensitive biomarkers. Therefore, the discovery of accurate biomarkers for KIRC patients is critical to improve prognosis.

methodsWe determined hub genes and their associated pathways involved in the pathogenesis of KIRC from the GSE66272 dataset consisting of KIRC (n = 26) and corresponding control (n = 26) samples and later validated the expression and methylation level of the identified hub genes on The Cancer Genomic Atlas (TCGA) datasets and Human RCC 786-O and normal HK-2 cell lines through RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and targeted bisulfite sequencing (bisulfite-seq) analyses.

resultsThe identified up-regulated four hub genes include TYROBP (Transmembrane Immune Signaling Adaptor TYROBP), PTPRC (Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, C), LCP2 (Lymphocyte cytosolic protein 2), and ITGB2 (Integrin Subunit Beta 2). Moreover, the higher expression of TYROBP, PTPRC, LCP2, and ITGB2 in KIRC patients insignificantly correlates with a poor prognosis in KIRC patients. In addition, hub genes were involved in the "Fc epsilon RI signaling pathway, asthma, natural cell killer mediated cytotoxicity, T cell receptor signaling pathway, primary immunodeficiency, Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis, malaria, leukocyte transendothelial migration, and legionellosis" pathways and associated with the infiltration level of CD8+ T, CD4+ T, and macrophage cells.

conclusionOur integrated in silico and in vitro analysis identified important hub genes (TYROBP, PTPRC, LCP2, and ITGB2) involved in the pathogenesis of KIRC as possible diagnostic biomarkers.
