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

backgroundBiomarkers and pathways associated with renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) had not been well unveiled. This study was intended to investigate and summarize the regulatory networks for related hub genes. Besides, the immunological micro-environment features were evaluated and the correlations between immune cells and hub genes were also explored.

methodsGSE98622 containing mouse samples with multiple IRI stages and controls was collected from the GEO database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were recognized by the R package limma, and the GO and KEGG analyses were conducted by DAVID. Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) and weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) had been implemented to uncover changed pathways and gene modules related to IRI. Besides the known pathways such as apoptosis pathway, metabolic pathway, and cell cycle pathways, some novel pathways were also discovered to be critical in IRI. A series of novel genes associated with IRI was also dug out. An IRI mouse model was constructed to validate the results.

resultsThe well-known IRI marker genes (Kim1 and Lcn2) and novel hub genes (Hbegf, Serpine2, Apbb1ip, Trip13, Atf3, and Ncaph) had been proved by the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Thereafter, miRNAs targeted to the dysregulated genes were predicted and the miRNA-target network was constructed. Furthermore, the immune infiltration for these samples was predicted and the results showed that macrophages infiltrated to the injured kidney to affect the tissue repair or fibrosis. Hub genes were significantly positively or negatively correlated with the macrophage abundance indicating they played a crucial role in macrophage infiltration.

conclusionsConsequently, the pathways, hub genes, miRNAs, and the immune microenvironment may explain the mechanism of IRI and might be the potential targets for IRI treatments.
