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

The etiologies and pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) with heart failure (HF) remain to be defined. Thus, exploring specific diagnosis biomarkers and mechanisms is urgently needed to improve this situation. In this study, three gene expression profiling datasets (GSE29819, GSE21610, GSE17800) and one single-cell RNA sequencing dataset (GSE95140) were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. GSE29819 and GSE21610 were combined into the training group, while GSE17800 was the test group. We used the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and identified fifteen driver genes highly associated with DCM with HF in the module. We performed the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) on the driver genes and then constructed five machine learning classifiers (random forest, gradient boosting machine, neural network, eXtreme gradient boosting, and support vector machine). Random forest was the best-performing classifier established on five Lasso-selected genes, which was utilized to select out NPPA, OMD, and PRELP for diagnosing DCM with HF. Moreover, we observed the up-regulation mRNA levels and robust diagnostic accuracies of NPPA, OMD, and PRELP in the training group and test group. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis further demonstrated their stable up-regulation expression patterns in various cardiomyocytes of DCM patients. Besides, through gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), we found TGF-β signaling pathway, correlated with NPPA, OMD, and PRELP, was the underlying mechanism of DCM with HF. Overall, our study revealed NPPA, OMD, and PRELP serving as diagnostic biomarkers for DCM with HF, deepening the understanding of its pathogenesis.
