Bioinformatics approach reveals the critical role of inflammation-related genes in age-related hearing loss.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most prevalent sensory impairment in the elderly. However, the pathogenesis of ARHL remains unclear. This study was aimed to explore the potential inflammation-related genes of ARHL and suggest novel therapeutic targets for this condition. Initially, a total of 105 Inflammatory related differentially expressed genes (IRDEGs) were obtained by overlapping the differentially expressed genes from the GSE49522 and GSE49543 datasets with Inflammatory related genes. The IRDEGs were mainly enriched in MAPK, PI3K-Akt, Hippo and JAK-STAT pathways by analysis of Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. We then identified 10 key IRDEGs including Alox5ap, Chil1, Clec7a, Dysf, Fcgr3, etc. using Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis and converted them into human genes. The ROC curve indicated that Alox5ap expression presented a high accuracy in distinguishing between different groups. By CIBERSORT algorithm, 8 humanized key IRDEGs were correlated with the infiltration abundance of 3 immune cells. Finally, it showed that the Alox5ap expression was significantly more effective compared to other variables in the diagnostic model of ARHL. This study suggests that inflammation might play a role in the development of ARHL, providing a deeper understanding of the underlying causes of this disease.
