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

purposemiRNAs have been linked to chemosensitivity of breast cancer cells in vitro. In patients, however, there is no clinically validated method for predicting chemotherapy response. The aim of this study was to assess whether (I) a specific pattern of miRNA expression in pretherapeutic biopsies can predict response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and (II) differential miRNA expression in residual tumor after completion of chemotherapy allows further prognostic stratification of non-responding patients.

methodsSixty-four patients with newly diagnosed large (≥3 cm) or locally advanced primary breast cancers who underwent neoadjuvant anthracycline/taxane-based chemotherapy were included. Relative expression of 10 miRNAs likely to be associated with chemotherapy response (miR-7,-21,-29a,-29b,-34a,-125b,-155,-200c,-340,-451) was determined by quantitative RT-PCR from pretherapeutic biopsies (n = 64) and residual invasive tumor after chemotherapy (n = 42). Pathologic complete response (pCR) defined by absence of invasive tumor served as reference standard. In addition, miRNA expression was compared with disease-free and overall survival.

resultsNine (14%) of 64 patients achieved pCR. High expression of miR-7 and low expression of miR-340 in pretherapeutic biopsies predicted pCR with a negative predictive value of 96 and 97%, respectively (specificity 54 and 57%). The combined profile of miR-7

conclusionsIntratumoral expression of miR-7 and miR-340 prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy could be used to predict pCR and a profile of miR-7
