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

Notch-regulated ankyrin-repeat protein (NRARP) has recently been reported to be involved in a number of malignant cancers; however, its role in non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear. The present study aimed to identify whether NRARP could be applied as a novel prognostic marker for NSCLC. A total of 108 NSCLC patients were enrolled in the present study and their lung tissues were collected. Reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical staining were used to assess the mRNA and protein levels of NRARP. Appropriate statistical tests were performed to evaluate the associations between NRARP protein expression and clinicopathological features and prognosis in NSCLC patients. The results revealed that NRARP expression was significantly associated with tumor differentiation (P=0.001), Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage (P=0.004) and cigarette smoking (P
