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

The regulation of the immune system and the occurrence of inflammation are vital factors in the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke. This study aims to screen target molecules which play key roles in alleviating the brain injury following ischemic stroke via regulating neuroinflammation. Several bioinformatics methods were used to identify immune-related genes in ischemic stroke. A total of 218 genes were identified as differentially expressed genes within the GSE97537 dataset. By performing GO, KEGG, and GSEA analyses, DEGs were mainly enriched in pathways related to immunity and inflammation. By utilizing the MCODE plugin in conjunction with Cytoscape software, a total of six crucial genes were identified, including C1qb, C1qc, Fcer1g, Fcgr3a, Tyrobp, and CD14. Based on the above crucial genes, 13 miRNAs were predicted. Furthermore, 71 potential drugs with therapeutic properties that target the crucial genes were screened, including lovastatin, ASPIRIN, and PREDNISOLONE. Moreover, the results of RT-qPCR showed that compared with Sham group, the expressions of C1qb, C1qc, Fcer1g, Fcgr3a, Tyrobp, and CD14 in MCAO group were significantly increased, which was consistent with the expression trend of validation dataset and training dataset. In conclusion, immune-related genes may play a key role in ischemic stroke. In addition, six crucial genes were identified as potential biomarkers and 71 promising drugs were screened to treat ischemic stroke patients.
