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

aimsMicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression and act as tumor suppressors or enhancers in oncogenesis. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNAs could alter the processing or actions of mature miRNA. So far, the association of miR-423 rs6505162 with cancers has not been explored, while the association of miR-499 rs3746444 was only reported in small-sized samples of different types of populations.

methodsTo evaluate the association of miR-499 rs3746444 and miR-423 rs6505162 with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we performed a large-scale case-control study of 984 patients with HCC and 991 cancer-free controls.

resultsThe risk of HCC was significantly higher with miR-499 rs3746444 TC+CC genotypes compared with those with the TT genotype (odds ratio [OR]=1.372, 95% confidence intervals [CI]=1.099-1.713, p=0.005), as was the risk of hepatitis B virus-related HCC (OR=1.437, 95% CI=1.128-1.831, p=0.003). Moreover, subjects with the TC+CC genotypes were more vulnerable to advanced HCC with larger tumor size (χ(2)=13.014, p=0.001) and/or higher total bilirubin (p=0.004), which suggested that a TT genotype or T allele might serve as a protective factor. miR-423 rs6505162 had no effect on the risk of HCC.

conclusionsmiR-499 rs3746444 may contribute to the risk and prognosis of HCC, indicating that this SNP could be developed as a biomarker for HCC prediction.
