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

ObjectiveTo elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying epilepsy, we investigated autophagy-related differentially expressed genes in epilepsy patients.MethodsWe analyzed GSE143272 and GSE4290 microarray datasets from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus database, which is established based on evaluations of peripheral blood samples. Using a bioinformatics approach, autophagy-related differentially expressed genes between epilepsy patients and healthy controls were identified. Further analyses including Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator regression, immune cell infiltration, and pathway enrichment were conducted. Experimental validation was performed using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in a mouse epileptic model. Additionally, the Connectivity Map database was employed to predict potential drugs.ResultsIn total, 49 autophagy-related differentially expressed genes were identified. A Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator logistic model revealed four autophagy-related differentially expressed genes, namely,
