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

Background: Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), derived from the endometrium, is the most common type of endometrial malignasis. This gynecological malignancy is very common all over the world, especially in developed countries and shows a potentially rising trend correlated with the increase in obese women. Methods: Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) analysis was conducted on GSE7305 and GSE25628 datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). DEGs were identified using GEO2R (adjusted p-value <0.05, |logFC| > 1). Pathway analysis employed KEGG and Gene Ontology databases, while protein-protein interactions were analyzed using Cytoscape and Gephi. GEPIA was used for target gene validation. Results: We have identified 304 common DEGs and 78 hub genes using GEO and PPI analysis, respectively. The GO and KEGG pathways analysis revealed enrichment of DEGs in extracellular matrix structural constituent, extracellular space, cell adhesion, and ECM-receptor interaction. GEPIA analysis identified three genes, ENG, GNG4, and ECT2, whose expression significantly differed between normal and tumor samples. Conclusion: This analysis study identified the hub genes and associated pathways involved in the pathogenesis of UCEC. The identified hub genes exhibit remarkable potential as diagnostic biomarkers, providing a significant opportunity for early diagnosis and more effective therapeutic approaches for UCEC.
