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

backgroundMicroRNA-155 (miR-155) is over-expressed in both hematopoietic malignancies and solid tumors. In the present study, we investigated the clinical significance of miR-155 in gallbladder carcinoma among Chinese population.

methodsTissue specimens were collected from 133 patients who had undergone surgical resection at Shandong Provincial Hospital, Shandong University between May 2008 and April 2014. We profiled miR- 155 expression in the gallbladder carcinoma tissues and normal gallbladder tissues by qRT-PCR. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the 5-year survival rate.

resultsThe expression levels of miR-155 were significantly higher in gallbladder carcinoma tissues than that in normal gallbladder tissues (P<0.001). High miR-155 expression was significantly associated with TNM stage (P=0.003), lymph node status (P=0.042), liver metastasis (P=0.010), and differentiated degree (P<0.001). We found that gallbladder carcinoma patients with high miR-155 expression level had distinctly shorter overall survival than patients with low miR-155 expression level (P=0.03). Multivariate analysis revealed that miR-155 expression level was independent prognostic factors for overall survival (HR=2.394, 95% CI: 1.568-10.034; P=0.009).

conclusionHigh miR-155 expression is a prognostic indicator for poor prognosis of patients with gallbladder carcinoma among Chinese population.
