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

purposeThe aim of the present study was to construct a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) signature to predict the prognosis of patients with cervical cancer (CC). MATERIALS AND

methodsWe downloaded lncRNA expression profiles and clinical characteristics from The Cancer Genome Atlas database and randomly divided them into a training dataset (n=200) and a testing dataset (n=87). Using a Cox-based iterative sure independence screening procedure combined with a resampling technique, a lncRNA signature was calculated from prognostic lncRNAs in the training dataset and was independently verified in the testing and the entire datasets. In addition, multivariate Cox regression and further stratified analyses were performed, taking into consideration the lncRNA signature as well as other clinical characteristics. Finally, we predicted the underlying functional effects of the prognostic lncRNAs by using Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses.

resultsWe constructed a promising ten-lncRNA signature that was significantly associated with the prognosis of CC on the basis of a risk score formula. The risk score was used to classify patients into high-risk and low-risk groups with different overall survival in the training dataset, and was confirmed in the testing and entire datasets. Compared with the clinical factors, the ten-lncRNA signature was found to be an independent prognostic indicator and displayed robust prognostic performance. A functional analysis indicated that these ten lncRNAs were enriched in immune response, cell adhesion molecules and nuclear factor kappa B signaling.

conclusionOur results demonstrated that this ten-lncRNA signature may serve as a prognostic biomarker for patients with CC.
