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 identification and development of biomarkers which predict response of muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients to neoadjuvant chemotherapy would likely increase usage of this treatment option and thereby improve patient survival rates. MiRNA array and qRT-PCR validation was used to identify miRNA which are associated with response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. RNA was extracted from a total of 41 archival, fully annotated, MIBC patient diagnostic biopsies (20 chemo-responders and 21 non-responders (response is defined as > 5 year survival rate and being pT0 post-chemotherapy)). Microarray and qPCR identified let-7c as being differentially expressed in chemo-responder versus non-responder patients. Patients with higher let-7c expression levels had significantly higher odds of responding to chemotherapy (p = 0.023, OR 2.493, 95% CI 1.121, 5.546), and assessment of let-7c levels allowed for prediction of patient response (AUC 0.72, positive predictive value 59%). Decreased let-7c was associated with MIBC incidence (p < 0.001), and significantly correlated with other related miRNA including those that were not differentially expressed between responders and non-responders. The combined data indicate let-7c plays a role in mediating chemoresistance to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in MIBC patients, and is a modest, yet clinically meaningful, predictor of patient response.
