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

objectiveMSI has a better prognosis than MSS in colorectal cancer patients, and the main objective of this study was to screen for differentially expressed molecules between MSI and MSS primary colorectal cancers using bioinformatics. MATERIAL AND

methodsTwo gene expression datasets (GSE13294 and GSE13067) were downloaded from GEO, and differential expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed using GEO2R. Gene Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genomes, and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis were conducted using the DEGs. Furthermore, a Protein-Protein Interaction Networks (PPI) was constructed to screen for significant modules and identify hub genes. The hub genes were analyzed in colorectal cancer using GEPIA. The expression of hub genes in clinical samples was visualized using the online Human Protein Atlas (HPA).

resultsA total of 265 common DEGs were identified in MSS primary colorectal cancer compared to MSI primary colorectal cancer. Among these, 178 DEGs were upregulated, and 87 DEGs were downregulated. Enrichment analysis showed that these DEGs were associated with the response to mechanical stimulus, regulation of cellular response to stress, G protein-coupled receptor binding, and other processes. A total of 5 hub genes was identified by cytoHubba: HNRNPL, RBM39, HNRNPH1, TRA2A, SRSF6. GEPIA software online analysis, 5 hub gene expression in colorectal cancer survival curve did not have significant differences. The expression of RBM39 was significantly different in different stages of colorectal cancer. The HPA online database results showed that the expression of the five hub proteins varied widely in CRC patients.

conclusionThe hub genes, such as HNRNPH1and RBM39, and the spliceosome resulting from DEGs, which may provide novel insights and evidence for the future diagnosis and targeted therapy of MSS/MSI PCRC.
