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

backgroundCurrent predictive model is not developed by inflammation-related genes to evaluate clinical outcome of breast cancer patients.

methodsWith mRNA expression profiling, we identified 3 mRNAs with significant expression between 15 normal samples and 669 breast cancer patients. Using 7 cell lines and 150 paraffin-embedded specimens, we verified the expression pattern by bio-experiments. Then, we constructed a three-mRNA model by Cox regression method and approved its predictive accuracy in both training set (n = 1095) and 4 testing sets (n = 703).

resultsWe developed a three-mRNA (TBX21, TGIF2, and CYCS) model to stratify patients into high- and low-risk subgroup with significantly different prognosis. In training set, 5-year OS rate was 84.5% (78.8%-90.5%) vs 73.1% (65.9%-81.2%) for the low- and high-risk group (HR = 1.573 (1.090-2.271); P = 0.016). The predictive value was similar in four independent testing sets (HR>1.600; P < 0.05). This model could assess survival independently with better predictive power compared with single clinicopathological risk factors and any of the three mRNAs. Patients with both low-risk values and any poor prognostic factors had more favorable survival from nonmetastatic status (HR = 1.740 (1.028-2.945), P = 0.039). We established two nomograms for clinical application that integrated this model and another three significant risk factors to forecast survival rates precisely in patients with or without metastasis.

conclusionsThis model is a dependable tool to predict the disease recurrence precisely and could improve the predictive accuracy of survival probability for breast cancer patients with or without metastasis.
