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

High‑grade ovarian serous cancer is known for its high rates of invasion and metastasis, and resultant high mortality rate. Therefore, research concerning biomarkers and underlying molecular mechanisms of high‑grade ovarian serous cancer progression and prognosis are urgently required. Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been the subject of an increasing number of studies, and certain lncRNAs have been demonstrated to serve an important function in the development and progression of various cancers, including HOX transcript antisense RNA, competing endogenous lncRNA 2 for microRNA let‑7b, urothelial cancer associated 1, and H19, imprinted maternally expressed transcript (non‑protein coding). However, few studies have investigated the differential expression of lncRNAs in high‑grade ovarian serous cancer. In the present study, differences in lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles between high‑grade ovarian serous cancer tissue samples and healthy fallopian tube tissue samples were investigated using microarray analysis, and the differential expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs was confirmed by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR). Then, five abnormally expressed lncRNAs were selected, and the associations between these lncRNAs and ovarian cancer clinicopathological parameters were examined using RT‑qPCR. The expression profiles of certain lncRNAs and mRNAs were confirmed to be altered between high‑grade ovarian serous cancer tissues and healthy fallopian tube tissues. Furthermore, the expression levels of selected lncRNAs were associated with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage and lymph node metastasis. These lncRNAs and mRNAs may therefore be involved in the pathogenesis of high‑grade ovarian serous cancer. The results of the present study provide an experimental foundation for further exploration of the value of these lncRNAs and mRNAs in the early diagnosis and treatment of high‑grade ovarian serous cancer.
