Identification of diagnostic genes and drug prediction of allergic asthma by integrated bioinformatics analysis, machine learning, and molecular docking.
Article in The World Allergy Organization journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Allergic asthma is a heterogeneous inflammatory airway disease with limited biomarkers and unclear immune mechanisms, complicating diagnosis and treatment. Objectives: This study aimed to identify key genes in allergic asthma patients, assess their role in immune regulation, and screen for potential therapeutic agents. Methods: RNA was extracted from blood samples of 36 allergic asthma patients and 19 healthy controls for high-throughput sequencing. Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) were identified and subjected to Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses. Four key genes were identified by intersecting DEGs with key modular genes from Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), top-ranked genes from Random Forest (RF), and significant genes from Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost). Core genes were determined via Protein-protein Interaction (PPI) network analysis and further evaluated using immune infiltration and molecular docking. Results: A total of 333 DEGs were identified, mainly involved in oxygen transport and pathology. TMIGD2, OBSCN, FCGBP, and FBLN2 were screened as key genes, with OBSCN and FBLN2 designated as core genes. Immune infiltration analysis revealed associations between core genes and various immune cells, and molecular docking showed strong binding affinities of midecamycin and paricalcitol to core genes. Conclusions: This study highlights the roles of OBSCN and FBLN2 in immune regulation in allergic asthma, suggesting midecamycin and paricalcitol as potential therapeutic agents.
