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: About 10% of individuals undergoing Methods: We first obtained three comprehensive microarray datasets "GSE58144, GSE103465 and GSE111974". The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) evaluation, enrichment analysis, as well as efficient weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), were employed for distinguishing RIF-linked hub genes, which were tested by RT-qPCR in our 30 independent samples. Next, we studied the topography of infiltration of 22 immune cell subpopulations and the association between hub genes and immune cells in RIF using the CIBERSORT algorithm. Results: The enrichment of GO/KEGG pathways reveals that Herpes simplex virus 1 infection and Conclusion: We first utilized WGCNA to identify the most potential nine hub genes which might be associated with RIF. Meanwhile, this study offers insights into the landscape of immune infiltration status to reveal the underlying immune pathogenesis of RIF. This may be a direction for the next study of RIF etiology. Further studies would be required to investigate the involved mechanisms.
