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

Background: Ground-glass opacities (GGOs) are a common computed tomography (CT) imaging feature in various pulmonary diseases, including early-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). The investigation of tumor-specific biomarkers for the diagnosis of early LUAD holds significant clinical importance. The aim of this study was to integrate highly specific tumor-educated platelet (TEP)-derived biomarkers to optimize preoperative evaluation. Methods: After identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs), six machine learning methods were applied to the sequencing results of cohort 1, generating a DEG-TEP data set. The DEGs in cohort 2 were considered to be the DEG-TISSUES data set. The intersection of these two gene sets was designated as the intersection-17 data set. Validation of the genes in intersection-17 was conducted in cohort 3 (tissues) and cohort 4 (platelets) via real-time reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). si- Results: A total of 7,753 DEGs were identified in cohort 1. After machine learning was applied, the DEG-TEP data set, consisting of 108 DEGs, was established, while the DEG-TISSUES data set contained 1,909 genes. The RT-qPCR results in cohort 3 indicated that the messenger RNA expression of Conclusions: We found that
