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 and objectives: This study aimed to screen the specific modules and hub genes of hyperlipidemia. Methods: Three microarray datasets (GSE3059, GSE1010 and GSE13985) were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) was used to screen stable gene modules across the three datasets. The MetaDE method was used to screen differentially expressed genes (DEGs) based on GSE1010 and GSE13985 datasets. The Cytoscape software was utilized for protein-protein interaction (PPI) network visualization, and the DAVID was employed to perform Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) signaling pathway analysis on the DEG nodes in the interaction network. Results: Based on the WGCNA algorithm, eleven hyperlipidemia-related modules were screened, and a total of 1,149 DEGs were screened by the metaDE method. 288 overlapping genes were used to establish a PPI network. Finally, a total of four overlapping KEGG pathways were obtained, including Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis ( Discussion: This study identified the critical pathways and hub genes associated with hyperlipidemia. In particular, these critical pathways may help clarify the pathogenesis of hyperlipidemia, and the hub genes may become new biomarkers and therapeutic target for hyperlipidemia.
