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: Electronic cigarettes produce aerosols that contain flavoring agents and nicotine, a drug that can lead to dependence, which users inhale. The widespread use of e-cigarettes has prompted research projects to investigate the safety or risks of e-cigarette smoke on human health. The present study aims to discover details of the e-cigarette smoke effect on the gene expression profile of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) via network analysis. Materials and Methods: Data of GSE118431(GPL16791) from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were extracted and pre-evaluated by GEO2R program. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed via protein-protein interaction PPI analysis, and the critical DEGs were introduced. Results: A total of 192 significant DEGs among the 17058 targeted genes were selected for PPI network analysis. The 177 recognized genes were interacted to construct a network. Six DEGs were common between the hubs and bottlenecks of the network. Conclusion: E-cigarettes target IL1B, PTGS2, SOD2, NFKBIA, TXNRD1, and DUSP1, the critical genes that are associated with progression of inflammation, cell proliferation and cell invasion in cancer, chromatin condensation, DNA fragmentation, and cell death.
