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

The present study aims to evaluate the impact of tumor microRNA-125b (miR-125b) on recurrence and survival of patients with clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) following surgery. We retrospectively enrolled 276 patients (200 in the training cohort and 76 in the validation cohort) with ccRCC undergoing nephrectomy at a single institution. Clinicopathologic features, cancer-specific survival (CSS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were recorded. Tumor miR-125b levels were assessed by in situ hybridization (ISH) in specimens of patients. The Kaplan-Meier method was applied to compare survival curves. Cox regression models were used to analyze the impact of prognostic factors on CSS and RFS. A concordance index (C-index) was calculated to assess predictive accuracy. In both cohorts, tumor miR-125b positively correlated with Fuhrman grade. High tumor miR-125b indicated poor survival and early recurrence for patients with ccRCC, especially with advanced stage disease. After multivariable adjustment, tumor miR-125b was identified as an independent adverse prognostic factor for survival and recurrence. The predictive accuracy of traditional TNM and UCLA Integrated Staging System prognostic models was improved when tumor miR-125b was added. The results showed that tumor miR-125b is a potential independent adverse prognostic biomarker for recurrence and survival of patients with ccRCC after nephrectomy.
