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

Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a chronic degenerative, disabling disease of the bones and joints and its exact aetiology and pathogenesis remain uncertain. This study is to investigate the role of m6A modification in the pathogenesis of KBD. Combined analysis of m6A MeRIP-Seq and RNA-Seq were used to analyse human peripheral blood samples from three KBD patients and three normal controls (NC). Bioinformatic methods were used to analyse m6A-modified differential genes and RT-qPCR was performed to validate the mRNA expression of several KBD-related genes. The results indicated that the total of 16,811 genes were modified by m6A in KBD group, of which 4882 genes were differential genes. A large number of differential genes were associated with regulation of transcription, signal transduction and protein binding. KEGG analysis showed that m6A-enriched genes participated the pathways of Vitamin B6 metabolism, endocytosis and Rap 1 signalling pathway. There was a positive association between m6A abundance and levels of gene expression, that there were 6 hypermethylated and upregulated genes (hyper-up), 23 hypomethylated and downregulated genes (hypo-down) in KBD group compared with NC. In addition, the mRNA expression of levels of MMP8, IL32 and GPX1 were verified and the protein-protein interaction networks of these key factors were constructed. Our study showed that m6A modifications may play a vital role in modulating gene expression, which represents a new clue to reveal the pathogenesis of KBD.
