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: Endometriosis (EM) is a disease related to reproductive dysfunction. The mechanism of epigenetic factors (EF) in EM still needs to be studied. Emerging evidence suggests that EF plays a role in the development of EM. However, the specific molecular pathways through which they exert their effects remain incompletely understood, necessitating further in-depth research. This study aimed to explore the mechanisms underlying EF in EM. Methods: In the study, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between EM and control were obtained by analyzing transcriptome data from public databases. Candidate genes were obtained by taking the intersection of DEGs and EF-related genes (EF-RGs), which were further screened using machine learning algorithms, receiver operating characteristic analysis, and expression levels in the EM and control samples to obtain biomarkers. The potential mechanisms of biomarkers in EF were further analyzed by constructing a nomogram model, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), immune infiltration analysis, expression profiling in tissues and cells, molecular regulatory networks, and drug prediction. The expression of these biomarkers was validated using in vitro experiments. Results: Histone deacetylase 9 ( Conclusion: This study identified three biomarkers (
