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

Asthma is a heterogeneous airway inflammatory disease that can be classified according to the inflammatory phenotype. The pathogenesis, clinical features, response to hormone therapy, and prognosis of different inflammatory phenotypes differ significantly. This condition also refers to age-related chronic ailments. Here, we intend to identify the function of aging-related genes in different inflammatory phenotypes of asthma using bioinformatic analyses. Initially, the research adopted the GSEA analysis to understand the fundamental mechanisms that govern different inflammatory phenotypes of asthma pathogenesis and use the CIBERSORT algorithm to assess the immune cell composition. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of eosinophilic asthma (EA), neutrophilic asthma (NA), and paucigranulocytic asthma (PGA) were identified through the limma R package. Aging-related genes, screened from multiple databases, were intersected with DEGs of asthma to obtain the asthma-aging-related DEGs. Then, the GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses showed that the NA- and EA-aging-related DEGs are involved in the various cytokine-mediated signaling pathways. PPI network and correlation analysis were performed to identify and evaluate the correlation of the hub genes. Further, the clinical characteristics of asthma-aging-related DEGs were explored through ROC analysis. 3 and 12 aging-related DEGs in EA and NA patients show high diagnostic accuracy, respectively (AUC >0.7). This study provided valuable insights into aging-related gene therapy for phenotype-specific asthma. Moreover, the study suggests that effective interventions against asthma may operate by disrupting the detrimental cycle of "aging induces metabolic diseases, which exacerbate aging".
