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

backgroundInflammation plays a critical role in ischemic stroke (IS). This study aimed to identify inflammation-related genes and explore potential pharmacological agents for future preclinical validation in IS.

methodsTranscriptome data were integrated to identify inflammation-related genes, which were functionally characterized and evaluated for diagnostic potential, with single-cell analysis and computational drug prediction.

resultsFour inflammation-related genes, C-C chemokine receptor type 7 (CCR7), CD7, CD96, and interleukin-7 receptor (IL-7R), were identified from integrated transcriptome analyses. These genes showed promising diagnostic potential (area under the curve (AUC) > 0.8) and were functionally associated with cytokine signaling, immune interactions, and calcium homeostasis. Drug-gene interaction and molecular docking analyses indicated that capecitabine and ruxolitinib are potential candidates for modulating CD96 and IL-7R.

conclusionThis study reveals four inflammation-related genes with preliminary diagnostic value and proposes capecitabine and ruxolitinib as candidate drugs for future preclinical research on IS.
