Identification of immune-related hub genes in spinal cord injury.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesImmune regulation is a pivotal factor in the pathogenesis and repair of spinal cord injury (SCI). This study aims to explore potential immune center genes associated with spinal cord injury.
methodsThe public data set GSE151371 was obtained from the GEO database. The R software package "limma" was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in SCI. GO, KEGG and GSEA pathway analyses were performed using the DEGs. The key module genes related to spinal cord injury were selected through WGCNA analysis. Overlapping genes were extracted from WGCNA, DEGs, and immune-related genes. LASSO analysis was employed to identify central genes associated with SCI immunity. Pearson correlation analysis assessed the correlation between hub genes and immune cells in SCI. In addition, we further investigated the hub genes' expression, diagnostic potential, function, and targeted drugs.
resultsWe have identified three immunity-related hub genes (ABHD5, EDNRB, EDN3). Immune infiltration analysis showed that the hub gene was significantly associated with resting NK cells, M2 macrophages, and monocytes in the immune microenvironment of SCI. ROC analysis demonstrated that these hub genes have favorable diagnostic performance for SCI. Functional analysis revealed that ABHD5 is primarily associated with lipid metabolism pathways, while EDN3 and EDNRB are mainly involved in endothelin, downstream GPCR signaling, and ERK signaling transduction. In addition, we identified six potential targeted drugs based on our findings.
conclusionsABHD5, EDNRB, and EDN3 are involved in processes such as SCI progression or repair through immunomodulation and deserve further study.
