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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of mircoRNA-17 and mircoRNA-17-5P (miR-17/17-5P) in patients with cancer. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe conducted a comprehensive search on published literature following the guidelines of the meta-analysis of observational studies in epidemiology group for design, implementation, and reporting. The methodological qualities for included studies were assessed using the quality in prognosis studies. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival/recurrence-free survival/disease-free survival (PFS/RFS/DFS) were calculated to appraise the associations between miR-17/17-5P expression and cancer prognosis.

resultsA total of 21 studies involving 2099 subjects were analyzed in evidence synthesis. The results showed that high expression of miR-17 was associated with poor OS (HR=2.14; 95% CI: 1.69-2.71,

conclusionHigh expression of miR-17 and miR-17-5P are significantly associated with poor survival in patients with cancer. This indicated that miR-17/17-5P may be a novel prognostic indicator in cancer.
