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

purposeRecent data have shown that the expression levels of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are associated with tamoxifen sensitivity in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. Herein, we constructed an lncRNA-based model to predict disease outcomes of ER-positive breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen.

methodsLncRNA expression information was acquired from Gene Expression Omnibus by re-mapping pre-existing microarrays of patients with ER-positive breast cancer treated with tamoxifen. The distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) predictive signature was subsequently built based on a Cox proportional hazard regression model in discover cohort patients, which was further evaluated in another independent validation dataset.

resultsSix lncRNAs were found to be associated with DMFS in the discover cohort, which were used to construct a tamoxifen efficacy-related lncRNA signature (TLS). There were 133 and 362 patients with TLS high- and low-risk signatures in the discover cohort. Both univariate and multivariate analysis demonstrated that TLS was associated with DMFS. TLS high-risk patients had worse outcomes than low-risk patients, with a hazard ratio of 4.04 (95% confidence interval, 2.83-5.77;

conclusionThis six-lncRNA signature was associated with disease outcome in ER-positive breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen, which is comparable to previous messenger RNA signatures and requires further clinical evaluation.
