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

Fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) encompass a diverse range of scarring disorders that lead to progressive lung failure. Previous gene expression profiling studies focused on idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and bulk tissue samples. We employed digital spatial profiling to gain new insights into the spatial resolution of gene expression across distinct lung microenvironments (LMEs) in IPF, chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP) and non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). We identified differentially expressed genes between LMEs within each condition, and across histologically similar regions between conditions. Uninvolved regions in IPF and CHP were distinct from normal controls, and displayed potential therapeutic targets. Hallmark LMEs of each condition retained distinct gene signatures, but these could not be reproduced in matched lung tissue samples. Based on these profiles and unsupervised clustering, we grouped previously unclassified ILD cases into NSIP or CHP. Overall, our work uniquely dissects gene expression profiles between LMEs within and across different types of fibrosing ILDs.
