Identification and clinical validation of endoplasmic reticulum genes related to pulmonary tuberculosis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), is a serious infectious disease. Previous studies have shown that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays an important role in various infectious processes. This study aimed to identify potential ER stress-related genes in TB by analyzing differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and to explore the role of ER stress in MTB infection. Ten ER stress-related DEGs (ERSRDEGs) were identified by standardizing and analyzing differential expression in the dataset GSE114911. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses revealed that these ERSRDEGs are significantly involved in neutrophil migration and the IL-17 signaling pathway. A protein-protein interaction network identified four hub genes (IL-1B, CCL20, IL -1 A, and TNF), among which gene IL-1B showed highly significant differential expression in the independent dataset GSE147964, demonstrating excellent diagnostic performance (AUC = 0.93). This finding was further validated by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which confirmed high expression of IL-1B in the plasma of TB patients. Immune infiltration analysis showed increased infiltration of M1 macrophages in the TB infection group, with gene IL-1B strongly positively correlated with M1 macrophage abundance. Additionally, the study analyzed correlations between genes IL-1 A and IL-1B and clinical indicators, including inflammatory factors and D-dimer levels. The results indicated that gene IL-1B was positively correlated with IL-6, TNF-α, and IFN-γ, while gene IL-1 A was positively correlated with D-dimer. Overall, these findings emphasize the critical role of ER stress-related genes in the pathophysiology of MTB infection.
