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

backgroundGene expression profiling has contributed greatly to cancer research. However, expression-driven biomarker discovery in metastatic gastric cancer (mGC) remains unclear. A gene expression profile predicting RAD001 response in refractory GC was explored in this study.

methodsTotal RNA isolated from 54 tumour specimens from patients with mGC, prior to RAD001 treatment, was analysed via the NanoString nCounter gene expression assay. This assay targeted 477 genes representing 10 different GC-related oncogenic signalling and molecular subtype-specific expression signatures. Gene expression profiles were correlated with patient clinicopathological variables.

resultsNanoString data confirmed similar gene expression profiles previously identified by microarray analysis. Signature I with 3 GC subtypes (mesenchymal, metabolic and proliferative) showed approximately 90% concordance where the mesenchymal and proliferative subtypes were significantly associated with signet ring cell carcinoma and the WHO classified tubular adenocarcinoma GC, respectively (p=0.042). Single-gene-level correlations with patient clinicopathological variables showed strong associations between

conclusionsMicroarray results are highly reproducible with NanoString nCounter gene expression profiling. Additionally,
