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: Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) lacks specific and sensitive biomarkers, and its diagnosis remains a challenge. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop useful biomarkers to help diagnose and evaluate the prognosis of DCM. This study aims to find specific diagnostic markers for diabetic cardiomyopathy. Methods: Two datasets (GSE106180 and GSE161827) from the GEO database were integrated to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between control and type 2 diabetic cardiomyopathy. We assessed the infiltration of immune cells and used weighted coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) to construct the gene coexpression network. Then we performed a clustering analysis. Finally, a diagnostic model was built by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). Results: A total of 3066 DEGs in the GSE106180 and GSE161827 datasets. There were differences in immune cell infiltration. According to gene significance (GS) > 0.2 and module membership (MM) > 0.8, 41 yellow Module genes and 1474 turquoise Module genes were selected. Hub genes were mainly related to the "proteasomal protein catabolic process", "mitochondrial matrix" and "protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum" pathways. LASSO was used to construct a diagnostic model composed of OXCT1, CACNA2D2, BCL7B, EGLN3, GABARAP, and ACADSB and verified it in the GSE163060 and GSE175988 datasets with AUCs of 0.9333 (95% CI: 0.7801-1) and 0.96 (95% CI: 0.8861-1), respectively. H9C2 cells were verified, and the results were similar to the bioinformatics analysis. Conclusion: We constructed a diagnostic model of DCM, and OXCT1, CACNA2D2, BCL7B, EGLN3, GABARAP, and ACADSB were potential biomarkers, which may provide new insights for improving the ability of early diagnosis and treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy.
