Screening of key genes in the pathogenesis of muscle atrophy in CKD-PEW children based on RNA sequencing.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundIn children with CKD, Protein Energy Wasting (PEW) is common, which affects the outcome of children and is an important cause of poor prognosis. We are aiming to explore the pathogenesis of muscle wasting in CKD-PEW children.
methodsBlood samples of 32 children diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and protein energy wasting (PEW) in our hospital from January 2016 to June 2021 were collected. RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed.
resultsBased on GO (Gene Ontology) functional enrichment analysis, KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) pathway enrichment analysis and differential gene expression analysis, a total of 25 CKD-PEW related genes were obtained including CRP, IL6, TNF, IL1B, CXCL8, IL12B, IL12A, IL18, IL1A, IL4, IL10, TGFB2, TGFB1, TGFB3, ADIPOQ, NAMPT, RETN, RETNLB, LEP, CD163, ICAM1, VCAM1, SELE, NF-κB1, NF-κB2. The most significantly differentially expressed gene was NF-κB2 (adjusted P = 2.81 × 10
conclusionsA variety of inflammatory factors are involved in the pathogenesis of CKD-PEW in children, and chronic inflammation may lead to the development of muscle atrophy in CKD-PEW. It is suggested for the first time that NF-κB is a key gene in the pathogenesis of muscle wasting in CKD-PEW children, and its increased expression may play an important role in the pathogenesis of muscle wasting in children with CKD-PEW.
