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

Background: At present, there is a paucity of research on the link between Crohn's disease (CD) and atrial fibrillation (AF). Nevertheless, both ailments are thought to entail inflammatory and autoimmune processes, and emerging evidence indicates that individuals with CD may face an elevated risk of AF. To shed light on this issue, our study seeks to explore the possibility of shared genes, pathways, and immune cells between these two conditions. Methods: We retrieved the gene expression profiles of both CD and AF from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and subjected them to analysis. Afterward, we utilized the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to identify shared genes, which were then subjected to further Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses. Furthermore, we employed a rigorous analytical approach by screening hub genes through both least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and support vector machine (SVM), and subsequently constructing a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve based on the screening outcomes. Finally, we utilized single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) to comprehensively evaluate the levels of infiltration of 28 immune cells within the expression profile and their potential association with the shared hub genes. Results: Using the WGCNA method, we identified 30 genes that appear to be involved in the pathological progression of both AF and CD. Through GO enrichment analysis on the key gene modules derived from WGCNA, we observed a significant enrichment of pathways related to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and antigen processing. By leveraging the intersection of LASSO and SVM algorithms, we were able to pinpoint two overlapping genes, namely Conclusions: By employing bioinformatics tools, we conducted an investigation with the objective of elucidating the genetic foundations that connect AF and CD. This study culminated in the identification of
