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

purposeTo set up a method by use of gene expression data to predict the prognosis of breast cancer patients on the basis of genes as few as possible, but maintaining the accuracy of prediction, we reanalyze the data from van't Veer et al. (Nature 415:530-536, 2002) and van de Vijver et al. (N Engl J Med 347:1999-2009, 2002).

methodsA three-step method based on re-sampling strategy is employed to select the prognostic genes. And based on these genes, a predictive approach is established. Validation sets are used to testify the predictive power of the prognostic genes.

resultsWe have discovered 13 genes as the most informative ones to predict the clinical outcomes of breast cancer patients with lymph node-negative. The validation results show the robust performances of these genes. And the results of further analysis illustrate the significant association of the prediction to the time of metastases and overall survival.

conclusionOur predictive approach is useful in prognosis prediction for breast cancer patients with lymph node-negative. The gene markers provide valuable information for the progression of breast cancer and suggest potential target genes for treating the cancer.
