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: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a prevalent chronic respiratory disorder with high morbidity and mortality, is closely associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and immune dysregulation; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Aims: The aim of this study is to identify mitochondrial hub genes and evaluate their diagnostic potential in COPD. Methods: This study combined bioinformatics and experimental methods to investigate mitochondria-related differentially expressed genes (MitoDEGs) in COPD pathogenesis. Two GEO datasets (GSE38974/GSE8545) were analyzed to identify MitoDEGs, which were functionally characterized and refined via machine learning (LASSO/SVM-RFE). Key genes were further validated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot in bronchial epithelial cells and COPD mouse model lung tissues. Immune infiltration analysis revealed connections between MitoDEGs and immune dysregulation in COPD that were experimentally confirmed using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and immunofluorescence (IF). Results: Among 28 identified MitoDEGs, five feature genes ( Conclusions: These findings highlight
