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

aimTo investigate the expression of microRNA-218 (miR-218) in serum from gastric cancer patients and its relationship with clinicopathological characteristics.

methodsA total of 68 patients with pathologically diagnosed gastric cancer and 56 healthy individuals were recruited to this study. The expression of miR-218 was detected in the serum of gastric cancer patients and healthy individuals by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The clinical data were collected and analyzed by statistical software.

resultsmiR-218 was reduced significantly in the serum of gastric cancer patients compared to healthy individuals (1.15 ± 0.08 vs 0.37 ± 0.023; P = 0.026). In the gastric cancer group, serum expression of miR-218 was lower in patients with metastasis and poorly differentiated cancer compared with non-metastatic and well-differentiated cancer (0.19 ± 0.011 vs 0.45 ± 0.021, P = 0.031 and 0.21 ± 0.019 vs 0.49 ± 0.021, P = 0.025). Serum miR-218 was found to be significantly associated with gastric cancer metastasis (P = 0.003), tumor T stage (P = 0.018) and tumor grade (P = 0.012). Low serum expression of miR-218 was related to an increase in the stage of gastric cancer. The expression level of miR-218 in the serum was correlated with the 3-year survival. Ninety-seven percent of patients with a high level of miR-218 expression survived for 3 years, while only 54% of those with low miR-218 expression survived.

conclusionmiR-218 is deregulated in gastric cancer patients and is strongly correlated with tumor stage, grade and metastasis. Serum expression of miR-218 may be a prognostic marker.
