Quantifying the expression of tumor marker genes in lung squamous cell cancer with RNA sequencing.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundWe measured the expression of some commonly used tumor markers with RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to identify any that might be useful for the evaluation of squamous cell lung cancer and identify possible correlations between these tumor markers and any clinical characteristics.
methodsRNA-Seq was performed on five pairs of squamous-cell lung cancer and normal tissues and another 39 squamous-cell lung cancer tissues obtained by our department between September and December, 2012. The expression of 13 commonly used tumor markers was determined.
resultsAll of the patients in our study were male. The expressions of CA125, CYFRA21-1, NSE and SCC increased in tumor samples and there were statistically significant differences between squamous cell lung cancer and normal tissues (P=0.008, P<0.001, P<0.001, P=0.001). The expression of β2M and CA15-3 was reduced in squamous cell carcinoma relative to normal tissues and there was no significant difference in the expression of other tumor markers, including AFP, AFU, CT, FER and HE4.
conclusionsCA125, CYFRA21-1, NSE and SCC may be appropriate tumor markers for squamous cell lung cancer.
