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

purposesGrowing evidences showed that lncRNAs abnormally expressed in cancer tissues and played irreplaceable roles in tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis. In present study, we aimed to identify lncRNA expression signature that can predict biochemical recurrence-free (BCR-free) survival of prostate cancer (PCa) patients.

methodsA total of 291 patients with pathologic confirmed PCa in The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset were recruited and included. With the specific risk score formula, patients were further classified into high-risk group and low-risk group. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses and Cox regression analyses were performed to determine the association between lncRNA signature and survival outcomes. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was carried out to identify the potentially associated biological processes and signaling pathway.

resultsOverall, 126 differentially expressed lncRNAs were found with more than twofold changes and p value of FDR <0.01. Among which, four lncRNAs were identified to be significantly associated with BCR-free survival. Then, using a risk score based on the signature of these four lncRNAs, we divided the patients into low-risk and high-risk groups with significantly different BCR-free survival and disease-free survival. Further multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that the four-lncRNA signature was independent of age, AJCC T stage, lymphonodus status, Gleason score, margin and adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy. GSEA suggested that this signature was involved in cell proliferation.

conclusionsIn present study, a novel four-lncRNA signature that is useful in survival prediction in PCa patients was developed. If validated, this lncRNA signature might assist in selecting high-risk subpopulation who need more aggressive therapeutic intervention. The clinical implications and the mechanism of these four lncRNAs deserve further investigation in future studies.
