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

backgroundAlthough long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are regarded as useful plasma-based biomarkers for cancer detection, the potential diagnostic value of lncRNAs in gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear.

methodsTo screen promising lncRNAs biomarkers for GC, we performed genome-wide lncRNA microarray assay between five GC cases plasma and matched healthy controls plasma. The expression of candidate plasma-related lncRNAs were validated in two-phase validation of 446 subjects. The receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed for evaluating diagnostic accuracy. We also determined the origin and stability of plasma lncRNAs, and investigated biological effects of candidate lncRNAs on cellular phenotypes.

resultsA total of 3878 lncRNAs were expressed differentially in GC plasma, among which the top 10 up-regulated lncRNAs were selected for further validation. A two-stage validation revealed that plasma levels of three lncRNAs (FAM49B-AS, GUSBP11, and CTDHUT) were significantly higher in GC plasma as compared with healthy controls (P < 0.05), and the combined area under curve of these lncRNAs was 0.818 (95% CI 0.772-0.864). Moreover, these lncRNAs were stable and detectable in human plasma, and also enriched in extracellular fluid. The expression levels of all three lncRNAs dropped significantly on day 10 after radical surgery compared with preoperative levels (P < 0.05). Also, lncRNA FAM49B-AS significantly promoted GC cell viability and invasion.

conclusionsPlasma lncRNA FAM49B-AS, GUSBP11 and CTDHUT have a strong potential to serve as noninvasive biomarkers for GC diagnosis.
