Differential expression and correlation analysis of whole transcriptome for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

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
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disease that accounts for 90% or more of all diabetes cases and contributes to the global public health burden. The pathogenesis of T2DM is extremely complex, and increasing evidence suggests that non-coding RNA (ncRNA) is an important molecule involved in the regulation of T2DM. However, there are still many unknown lncRNAs and circRNAs that need further exploration. This study aims to explore new lncRNAs and circRNAs and their potential biological functions in T2DM. Methods: This study utilized high-throughput whole-transcriptome RNA sequencing technology to sequence and analyze five whole blood samples from each group, identifying differentially expressed mRNAs, lncRNAs, circRNAs, and miRNAs between the T2DM group and the control group. The biological functions of the differentially expressed RNAs were analyzed using Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. Subsequent association analysis was performed based on the screened differentially expressed mRNA, lncRNA, circRNA, and miRNA to construct a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network. Results: Differential expression results showed that 411 mRNAs were differentially expressed, 500 lncRNAs were differentially expressed, 356 circRNAs were differentially expressed, and 67 miRNAs were differentially expressed in patients with T2DM compared to controls. Functional analysis showed that cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, graft-versus-host disease, inflammatory bowel disease, Lipid and atherosclerosis, sphingolipid signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, and FOXO signaling pathway, etc. play important roles in T2DM. The gene list was enriched with terms such as immune response, 1-phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase activity, oxidoreductase activity, action on the CH-NH2 donor group, interleukin-18 receptor activity, and antimicrobial peptide biosynthesis process, suggesting potential relevance to T2DM. In addition, six circRNAs and six lncRNAs were identified, which can compete with miRNA as ceRNA in the co-expression network. Conclusions: Differentially expressed circRNAs and lncRNAs may play a crucial role in T2DM. The ceRNA regulatory network provides new insights into T2DM.
