Bioinformatics analysis identifies TGF-β signaling pathway-associated molecular subtypes and gene signature in diabetic foot.
Article in iScience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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 role of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) in inflammation and immune response is established, but the mechanism of TGF-β signaling pathway-related genes (TRGs) in diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is not fully understood. We aimed to investigate the contribution of TRGs in the identification, molecular categorization, and immune infiltration of DFU through bioinformatics analysis. TGF-β signaling pathway is activated in DFU. 33 TRGs were upregulated. Regression analysis revealed TGFBR1 and TGFB1 as significant differential expression core genes, validated by quantitative real-time PCR. The diagnostic model with core genes had high clinical validity (AUC = 0.909). Core gene expression was associated with immune cell infiltration. A total of 5672 genes showed differential expression in TGF-related patterns, with differences in biological functions and immune infiltration. TGF-β signaling pathway may be critical in DFU development.
