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

backgroundAbout 50% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients develop distant metastases following pulmonary resection. Currently, there are no reliable factors allowing for individual selection of high-risk patients for adjuvant systemic therapies.

methodsWe assessed by quantitative reverse transcription PCR microRNA (miRNA) expression in 273 stage I-IIIA NSCLC samples. Expression of 677 miRNAs was evaluated in fresh-frozen tumour samples in the training cohort of 50 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) patients who underwent curative surgery. Of those, 20 patients developed distant metastases, and 30 were free of recurrence for >4 years. In the second step, miRNAs with highest predictive value for distant relapse were re-evaluated in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded material in an independent group of 134 stage I-IIIA SCC patients. Additionally, the same miRNAs were investigated in 89 lung adenocarcinoma (AC) patients and in normal lung parenchyma (NLP).

resultsIn the training cohort of SCC, six miRNAs were differently expressed in the non-recurrent vs recurrent groups and correlated with distant recurrence-free survival, however none reached the level of significance after correction for multiple testing. Of these six miRNAs, miR-662, -192 and -192* were confirmed as prognostic in the independent SCC cohort. Expression of miR-128, -10b, -502-3p and -192 differed between SCC and AC, and miR-128 and -192 - between NLP and NSCLC.

conclusionsWe identified three new miRNAs predictive of distant relapse in operable SCC. Future miRNA studies should account for differences between NSCLC subtypes.
