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

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the most common causes of heart failure. Several studies have used RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) to profile differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with DCM. In this study, we aimed to profile gene expression signatures and identify novel genes associated with DCM through a quantitative meta-analysis of three publicly available RNA-seq studies using human left ventricle tissues from 41 DCM cases and 21 control samples. Our meta-analysis identified 789 DEGs including 581 downregulated and 208 upregulated genes. Several DCM-related genes previously reported, including
