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

backgroundPigs serve as a crucial source of protein in the human diet and play a fundamental role in ensuring food security. However, infectious diseases caused by bacteria or viruses are a major threat to effective global pig farming, jeopardizing human health. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are a mixture of immune cells that play crucial roles in immunity and disease resistance in pigs. Previous studies on the gene expression regulation patterns of PBMCs have concentrated on a single immune stimulus or immune cell subpopulation, which has limited our comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms of the pig immune response.

resultsHere, we integrated and re-analyzed RNA-seq data published online for porcine PBMC stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), polyinosinic acid (PolyI:C), and various unknown microorganisms (EM). The results revealed that gene expression and its functional characterization are highly specific to the pathogen, identifying 603, 254, and 882 pathogen-specific genes and 38 shared genes, respectively. Notably, LPS and PolyI:C stimulation directly triggered inflammatory and immune-response pathways, while exposure to mixed microbes (EM) enhanced metabolic processes. These pathogen-specific genes were enriched in immune trait-associated quantitative trait loci (QTL) and eGenes in porcine immune tissues and were implicated in specific cell types. Furthermore, we discussed the roles of eQTLs rs3473322705 and rs1109431654 in regulating pathogen- and cell-specific genes CD300A and CD93, using cellular experiments. Additionally, by integrating genome-wide association studies datasets from 33 complex traits and diseases in humans, we found that pathogen-specific genes were significantly enriched for immune traits and metabolic diseases.

conclusionsWe systematically analyzed the gene expression profiles of the three stimulations and demonstrated pathogen-specific and cell-specific gene regulation across different stimulations in porcine PBMCs. These findings enhance our understanding of shared and distinct regulatory mechanisms of genetic variants in pig immune traits.
