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: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequent glomerulonephritis in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the inter-relational mechanisms between them are still unclear. This study aimed to explore the shared gene effects and potential immune mechanisms in IgAN and IBD. Methods: The microarray data of IgAN and IBD in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were downloaded. The differential expression analysis was used to identify the shared differentially expressed genes (SDEGs). Besides, the shared transcription factors (TFs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) in IgAN and IBD were screened using humanTFDB, HMDD, ENCODE, JASPAR, and ChEA databases. Moreover, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify the shared immune-related genes (SIRGs) related to IgAN and IBD, and R software package org.hs.eg.db (Version3.1.0) were used to identify common immune pathways in IgAN and IBD. Results: In this study, 64 SDEGs and 28 SIRGs were identified, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of 64 SDEGs was calculated and two genes (MVP, PDXK) with high area under the curve (AUC) in both IgAN and IBD were screened out as potential diagnostic biomarkers. We then screened 3 shared TFs (SRY, MEF2D and SREBF1) and 3 miRNAs (hsa-miR-146, hsa-miR-21 and hsa-miR-320), and further found that the immune pathways of 64SDEGs, 28SIRGs and 3miRNAs were mainly including B cell receptor signaling pathway, FcγR-mediated phagocytosis, IL-17 signaling pathway, toll-like receptor signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, TRP channels, T cell receptor signaling pathway, Th17 cell differentiation, and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. Conclusion: Our work revealed the differentiation of Th17 cells may mediate the abnormal humoral immunity in IgAN and IBD patients and identified novel gene candidates that could be used as biomarkers or potential therapeutic targets.
