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

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common subtype of lung cancer worldwide. The high mortality rate of NSCLC is due to a limited number of diagnosis being made at an early stage of disease. Therefore, the development of a novel biological marker for the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of NSCLC remains urgent. Current literature shows that microRNA-21 (miRNA-21/miR-21), as an oncogenic miRNA, is involved in the growth, metastasis and apoptosis of NSCLC cells through its control of various target molecules and signaling pathways. Notably, a growing body of evidence further shows that miR-21 is closely associated with the prognosis prediction, recurrence and diagnosis of cancer patients, indicating that miR-21 may be a novel promising biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of NSCLC. The present review aimed to provide a summary of recent findings on the associated progression toward finding a novel biomarker for NSCLC.
