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

backgroundMicroRNA (miRNA)-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (miR-SNPs) in miRNA processing machinery genes are implicated in carcinogenesis, as they change the expression profiles of miRNA. Six miR-SNPs in miRNA processing machinery genes, including Dicer (rs3742330), RAN (rs14035), XPO5 (rs11077), TNRC6B (rs9623117), GEMIN3 (rs197412), and GEMIN4 (rs2740348), were evaluated for their association with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

methodsThe miR-SNP of the miRNA processing genes were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reaction (PCR-LDR) assay, while the XPO5 expression levels in ESCC tissues were measured by immunochemistry methods.

resultsPatients carrying the rs11077 AA allele exhibited a significantly increased lifespan than AC+CC carriers, as determined by univariate and multivariate analyses (relative risk: 2.490; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.225-5.058; P=.012). Furthermore, the rs11077 AA genotype displayed a trend for high XPO5 expression in ESCC tissues by immunochemistry analysis, and these high XPO5 expression levels were also associated with high survival rates among ESCC patients.

conclusionOur results suggested that the miRNA machinery gene expression-associated miR-SNPs would modify cancer outcomes; in this light, XPO5 may be an important new target for ESCC therapy.
