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

backgroundAsthma is a heterogeneous disorder. This study aimed to identify changes in gene expression and molecular mechanisms associated with moderate to severe asthma.

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed in GSE69683 dataset among moderate asthma and its controls as well as between severe asthma and moderate asthma. Key module genes were identified via co-expression analysis, and the molecular mechanism of the module genes was explored through enrichment analysis and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). GSE89809 was used to verify the characteristic genes related to moderate and severe asthma.

resultsAccordingly, 2540 DEGs were present between moderate asthma and the control group, while 6781 DEGs existed between severe asthma and moderate asthma. These genes were identified into 14 co-expression modules. Module 7 had the highest positive correlation with severe asthma and was recognized to be a key module by STEM. Enrichment analysis demonstrated that the module genes were mainly involved in oxidative stress-related signaling pathways. The expression of HSPA1A, PIK3CG and PIK3R6 was associated with moderate asthma, while MAPK13 and MMP9 were associated with severe asthma. The AUC values were verified by GSE89809. Additionally, 322 drugs were predicted to target five genes.

conclusionThese results identified characteristic genes related to moderate and severe asthma and their corresponding molecular mechanisms, providing a basis for future research.
