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

purposeOocyte aging is a significant factor in the negative reproductive outcomes of older women. However, the pathogenesis of oocyte aging remains unclear. This study aimed to identify the hub genes involved in oocyte aging via bioinformatics methods.

methodsThe oocyte aging datasets GSE155179 and GSE158802 were obtained from the GEO database and analyzed as the training set. The GSE164371 dataset was then defined as the validation set. Differentially expressed genes were analyzed via the limma package and weighted gene coexpression network analysis, and intersected with cellular senescence-associated genes from the Cell Senescence database. The hub genes were identified via three machine learning algorithms, namely, support vector machine recursive feature elimination, random forest, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic, which were also confirmed via the validation set. Finally, a microRNA-mRNA‒transcription factor regulatory network and single-gene gene set enrichment analysis were performed to clarify the pathogenesis of oocyte aging.

resultsA competing endogenous RNA network of GSE155179 and GSE158802 with 124 mRNAs, 31 long noncoding RNAs, and 31 miRNAs was constructed. Two modules with 814 genes were considered the key modules of oocyte aging. PDIK1L, SIRT1, and MCU were subsequently identified as hub genes; on the basis of these hub genes, a regulatory network of oocyte aging with 8 miRNAs, 3 mRNAs, and 227 TFs was ultimately constructed.

conclusionsThis study contributes to a deeper understanding of oocyte aging and may aid in the development of therapeutic approaches to improve reproductive outcomes in older women.
