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

backgroundNon-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents the most frequent subtype of lung cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have attracted a lot of attention with regard to their clinical significance and crucial biological functions in various human cancers. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of microRNA-421 (miR-421) and its correlation with tumor progression in NSCLC. MATERIALS AND

methodsExpression levels of miR-421 in both serum and tissue samples were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The prognostic value of miR-421 was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression assay. To explore the functional role of miR-421 during NSCLC progression, cell experiments were carried out.

resultsExpression of serum and tissue miR-421 was upregulated in the NSCLC patients compared with the normal controls (all

conclusionOverexpression of miR-421 serves as a prognostic biomarker and may be involved in the promotion of tumor progression in NSCLC.
