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

Bioinformatics analysis has been playing a vital role in identifying potential genomic biomarkers more accurately from an enormous number of candidates by reducing time and cost compared to the wet-lab-based experimental procedures for disease diagnosis, prognosis, and therapies. Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the most malignant diseases seen in women worldwide. This study aimed at identifying potential key genes (KGs), highlighting their functions, signaling pathways, and candidate drugs for CC diagnosis and targeting therapies. Four publicly available microarray datasets of CC were analyzed for identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs) by the LIMMA approach through GEO2R online tool. We identified 116 common DEGs (cDEGs) that were utilized to identify seven KGs (AURKA, BRCA1, CCNB1, CDK1, MCM2, NCAPG2, and TOP2A) by the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis. The GO functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses of KGs revealed some important functions and signaling pathways that were significantly associated with CC infections. The interaction network analysis identified four TFs proteins and two miRNAs as the key transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators of KGs. Considering seven KGs-based proteins, four key TFs proteins, and already published top-ranked seven KGs-based proteins (where five KGs were common with our proposed seven KGs) as drug target receptors, we performed their docking analysis with the 80 meta-drug agents that were already published by different reputed journals as CC drugs. We found Paclitaxel, Vinorelbine, Vincristine, Docetaxel, Everolimus, Temsirolimus, and Cabazitaxel as the top-ranked seven candidate drugs. Finally, we investigated the binding stability of the top-ranked three drugs (Paclitaxel, Vincristine, Vinorelbine) by using 100 ns MD-based MM-PBSA simulations with the three top-ranked proposed receptors (AURKA, CDK1, TOP2A) and observed their stable performance. Therefore, the proposed drugs might play a vital role in the treatment against CC.
