The Significance of Long Non-coding RNA HULC in Predicting Prognosis and Metastasis of Cancers: a Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Pathology oncology research : POR, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.
Who cites it
10 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 13 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated that they not only play important roles in tumorgenicity but also associate with cancer prognosis. Recently, highly up-regulated in liver cancer (HULC) is abnormally expressed in liver cancer and other cancers, and participated in cancers progression; however, it is unclear whether its expression is associated with prognosis. Here, we performed a meta-analysis and systematic review to evaluate the prognostic value and metastasis of HULC in various cancer patients. The meta-analysis was performed using a systematic search of PubMed, Web of Science, ScienceDirect and Wiley Online Library database to eligible studies. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with a 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated to assess its prognosis and metastasis in human cancer. A total of 1134 patients from 11 studies were included. The results indicated that overexpression of HULC was associated with poor overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.89, 95% CI: 1.32-2.47). Furthermore, subgroup analysis showed that cancer type (digestive system cancer or non-digestive system cancers) and sample size (more or less than 100) significantly associated between HULC and OS. In addition, overexpression of HULC expression was significantly associated with metastasis in cancers (HR = 2.67, 95% CI: 0.94-4.39). The meta-analysis indicated that lncRNA HULC could serve as a new molecular marker for cancer prognosis and metastasis.
