Identification of Biomarkers for Lung Adenocarcinoma With Qi Deficiency and Phlegm Dampness.
Article in The clinical respiratory journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundQi deficiency and phlegm dampness (QPD) is one of the most common traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). This study aimed to identify syndrome-specific biomarkers for LUAD with QPD syndrome.
methodsPeripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from LUAD patients with QPD, LUAD patients with non-QPD (N-QPD), and healthy control (H) were collected and analyzed with RNA-seq to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) of each DEG was calculated, and the top 10 highest AUC DEGs were validated by qRT-PCR. Logistic regression analysis was used to develop a diagnostic model evaluated with AUC.
resultsA total of 135 individuals were enrolled in this study (training set: 15 QPD, 15 N-QPD, 15 H; validation set: 30 QPD, 30 N-QPD, 30 H). A total of 1480 DEGs were identified between QPD and N-QPD. The qRT-PCR results showed that the expression of DDR2 was downregulated, and PPARG was upregulated, which was in line with the finding of the training set. We developed a diagnostic model with these two genes. The AUC of the diagnostic model in the training cohort and validation cohort was 0.891 and 0.777, respectively.
conclusionsWe identified the two genes (DDR2 and PPARG) as syndrome-specific biomarkers for LUAD with QPD syndrome and developed a novel diagnostic model, which may help to improve the accuracy and sensibility of clinical diagnosis and provide a new target for natural drug treatment of LUAD.
