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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, life-threatening interstitial lung disease whose pathogenesis remains unclear. There is evidence showing the possible role of CD8+ T cells in the pathogenesis of IPF and the correlation with the clinical symptoms of IPF. In order to further explore the role of CD8+ T cells in IPF, we screened CD8+ T cell related genes (CRG) that are associated with IPF prognosis, and established the molecular typing characteristics of IPF. Subsequently, CXCR4, GPR56 and PAK1 were screened as independent prognostic factors. Expression profiles and multivariate analysis coefficients were used to establish and validate prognostic features of IPF. Immuno-infiltration characteristics of the established feature were also analyzed. Subsequent in vitro experiments verified the abnormal expressions of three independent prognostic factors in TGF-β1 treated IPF model at protein and mRNA levels. Our findings shed new light on the important role of CD8+ T cells in the pathogenesis of IPF and provide potential targets for predicting prognosis and possible future clinical applications.
