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

backgroundBladder cancer is among the five most common malignancies worldwide, and due to high rates of recurrence, one of the most prevalent. Improvements in noninvasive urine-based assays to detect bladder cancer would benefit both patients and health care systems. In this study, the goal was to identify urothelial cell transcriptomic signatures associated with bladder cancer.

methodsGene expression profiling (Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays) was applied to exfoliated urothelia obtained from a cohort of 92 subjects with known bladder disease status. Computational analyses identified candidate biomarkers of bladder cancer and an optimal predictive model was derived. Selected targets from the profiling analyses were monitored in an independent cohort of 81 subjects using quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR).

resultsTranscriptome profiling data analysis identified 52 genes associated with bladder cancer (P ≤ 0.001) and gene models that optimally predicted class label were derived. RT-PCR analysis of 48 selected targets in an independent cohort identified a 14-gene diagnostic signature that predicted the presence of bladder cancer with high accuracy.

conclusionsExfoliated urothelia sampling provides a robust analyte for the evaluation of patients with suspected bladder cancer. The refinement and validation of the multigene urothelial cell signatures identified in this preliminary study may lead to accurate, noninvasive assays for the detection of bladder cancer. IMPACT: The development of an accurate, noninvasive bladder cancer detection assay would benefit both the patient and health care systems through better detection, monitoring, and control of disease.
