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

Many studies have investigated the diagnostic role of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) in patients with lung cancer; however, the results still remain inconclusive. An updated system review and meta-analysis was necessary to give a comprehensive evaluation of diagnostic role of circulating miRNAs in lung cancer. Eligible studies were searched in electronical databases. The sensitivity and specificity were used to plot the summary receiver operator characteristic (SROC) curve and calculate the area under the curve (AUC). The between-study heterogeneity was evaluated by Q test and I
