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

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortalities in the USA and the sixth leading cause of mortality in China. Recent studies have shown that lncRNAs play important roles in carcinogenesis. The aim of this study was to explore the role of lncRNA HULC in PC. Quantitative real-time PCR was performed to investigate the expression of HULC in tumor tissues and corresponding normal tissues from 304 patients with PC. The higher expression of HULC was significantly correlated with large tumor size, advanced lymph node metastasis and vascular invasion. Multivariate analyses revealed that HULC expression served as an independent predictor for overall survival (P = 0.032). Further experiments revealed that HULC knockdown significantly repressed cell proliferation of PC in vitro. In conclusion, our results suggest that HULC may serve as a candidate prognostic biomarker through growth regulation in human PC.
