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

objectivesAcute ischemic stroke (AIS) is caused by cerebral ischemia due to thrombosis in the blood vessel. The purpose of this study is to identify key genes related to metabolism to aid in the mechanism research and management of AIS. MATERIALS AND

methodsGene expression data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis, Gene Ontology and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes analysis were used to identify metabolism-related genes that may be involved in the regulation of AIS. A protein protein interaction network was mapped using Cytoscape based on the STRING database. Subsequently, hub metabolism-related genes were identified based on Cytoscape-CytoNCA and Cytoscape-MCODE plug-ins. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm and differential expression analysis. In addition, drug prediction, molecular docking, ceRNA network construction, and correlation analysis with immune cell infiltration were performed to explore their potential molecular mechanisms of action in AIS. Finally, the expression of hub gene was verified by real-time PCR.

resultsMetabolism-related genes FBL, HEATR1, HSPA8, MTMR4, NDUFC1, NDUFS8 and SNU13 were identified. The AUC values of FBL, HEATR1, HSPA8, MTMR4, NDUFS8 and SNU13 were all greater than 0.8, suggesting that they had good diagnostic accuracy. Correlation analysis found that their expression levels were also related to the infiltration levels of multiple immune cells, such as Activated.CD8.T.cell and Activated.dendritic.cell. It was found that only HSPA8 was successfully matched to drugs with literature support, and these drugs were acetaminophen, bupivacaine, dexamethasone, gentamicin, tretinoin and cisplatin. Moreover, it was also identified that the ENSG000000218510-hsa-miR-330-3p-HEATR1 axis may be involved in regulating AIS.

conclusionsThe identification of FBL, HEATR1, HSPA8, MTMR4, NDUFC1, NDUFS8 and SNU13 provides a new research direction for exploring the molecular mechanisms of AIS, which can help in clinical management and diagnosis.
