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

backgroundSince miRNAs can play important roles in different cancer types, how to discover cancer related miRNAs is an important issue. In general, the miRNAs with differential expression is the focus of attention. However, some important cancer related miRNAs are not excavated by differential expression analysis. We take this type of miRNAs as 'dark matters' (DM-miRNA). It is our great interests to develop an algorithm to discover DM-miRNAs.

resultsAn effective method was developed to find DM-miRNAs. This method is mainly for mining potential DM-miRNAs by building basic miRNA-mRNA network (BMMN) and miRNA-lncRNA network (BMLN). The results indicate that miRNA-mRNA and miRNA-lncRNA interactions can be used as novel cancer biomarkers.

conclusionsThe BMMN and BMLN can excavate the non-differentially expressed miRNAs which play an important role in the cancer. What's more, the edge biomarkers (miRNA-mRNA and miRNA-lncRNA interactions) contain more information than the node biomarkers. It will contribute to developing novel therapeutic candidates in cancers.
