Transcriptomic Analysis of Lipid Metabolism Genes in Alzheimer's Disease: Highlighting Pathological Outcomes and Compartmentalized Immune Status.
Article in Journal of molecular neuroscience : MN, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 dysregulation of lipid metabolism has been strongly associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and has intricate connections with various aspects of disease progression, such as amyloidogenesis, bioenergetic deficit, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and myelin degeneration. Here, a comprehensive bioinformatic assessment was conducted on lipid metabolism genes in the brains and peripheral blood of AD-derived transcriptome datasets, characterizing the correlation between differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of lipid metabolism and disease pathologies, as well as immune cell preferences. Through the application of weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), modules eigengenes related to lipid metabolism were pinpointed, and the examination of their molecular functions within biological processes, molecular pathways, and their associations with pathological phenotypes and molecular networks has been characterized. Analysis of biological networks indicates notable discrepancies in the expression patterns of the DEGs between neuronal and immune cells, as well as variations in cell type enrichments within both brain tissue and peripheral blood. Additionally, drugs targeting the DEGs from central and peripheral and a diagnostic model for hub genes from the blood were retrieved and assessed, some of which were shown to be useful for therapeutic and diagnostic. These results revealed the distinctive pattern of transcriptionally abnormal lipid metabolism in central, peripheral, and immune cell activation, providing valuable insight into lipid metabolism for diagnosing and guiding more effective treatment for AD.
