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

Mounting evidence suggests that intraplaque angiogenesis is associated with the progression of atherosclerotic plaques and the development of intraplaque hemorrhage. The specificity of intraplaque immune cell infiltration may be associated with abnormalities in the structure and function of the nascent capillaries. Here, we analyzed expression levels of angiogenesis-associated genes in early and advanced carotid atheromatous plaque tissues as well as in stable and intraplaque hemorrhage plaques. Expression profiles of advanced arterial plaques based on angiogenesis-associated genes were classified into subtypes by performing a consensus clustering analysis. The correlation between the immune microenvironment of plaques and expression of angiogenesis-associated genes was also explored using the single sample gene set enrichment analysis method and the CIBERSORT algorithm. We identified hub angiogenesis-associated genes showing similar expression patterns throughout plaque adverse progression, and constructed a prediction model using the random forest algorithm. Receiver operating curves were constructed to evaluate efficacy in identification of intraplaque hemorrhage in a plaque. Our results suggest that heterogeneity of angiogenesis-related genes may promote the malignant development of plaques and cause plaque rupture. In conclusion, we propose a model based on expression of angiogenesis-related genes to predict the risk of plaque rupture.
