Network Analysis Reveals Protein Modules Associated with Childhood Respiratory Diseases.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. 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
Background: The first year of life is a period of rapid immune development that can impact health trajectories and the risk of developing respiratory-related diseases, such as asthma, recurrent infections, and eczema. However, the biology underlying subsequent disease development remains unknown. Methods: Using weighted gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA), we derived modules of highly correlated immune-related proteins in plasma samples from children at age 1 year (N=294) from the Vitamin D Antenatal Asthma Reduction Trial (VDAART). We applied regression analyses to assess relationships between protein modules and development of childhood respiratory diseases up to age 6 years. We then characterized genomic, environmental, and metabolomic factors associated with modules. Results: WGCNA identified four protein modules at age 1 year associated with incidence of childhood asthma and/or recurrent wheeze (P Conclusion: These findings suggested protein profiles as early as age 1 year predicted development of respiratory-related diseases through age 6 and were associated with changes in pathways related to amino acid and energy metabolism. These may inform new strategies to identify vulnerable individuals based on immune protein profiling.
