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

Cross-talk between competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) play key roles in tumor development. In this study, we performed exon-level expression profiling on 26 glioblastomas (GBMs) and 6 controls to identify long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) of GBM initiation and progression using lncRNA-mediated ceRNA network (LMCN). The mRNA and lncRNA expression data, as well as miRNA-target interactions were firstly collected. Then, we used hypergeometric test to detect the lncRNA-mRNA interactions, followed by the construction of LMCN based on Pearson correlation coefficient. With the goal of investigation of the network organization, degree distribution of LMCN was performed. Next, the synergistic, competing lncRNA modules were identified using jActiveModule plug-in of Cytoscape. Moreover, we implemented the pathway analysis for its mRNAs in the module to explore the functions of significant lncRNAs. Using the criteria of degrees >50, 8 hub genes were identified, including EPB41L4A-AS1, ZRANB2-AS2, XIST, HOTAIR, TRAF3IP2-AS1, TPT1-AS1, PVT1 and DLG1-AS1. Furthermore, 1 synergistic, competitive module was identified. In this module, lncRNAs XIST and PVT1 were also the hubs in the synergistic, competing lncRNA module. Functional annotation demonstrated that 5 pathways were identified, including cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, and mTOR signaling pathway. We have successfully identified several hubs (such as XIST and PVT1) and significant pathways (for instance, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, and neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions) for GBM via establishing the LMCN. These findings might offer potential biomarkers to early diagnose, and predict GBM prognosis in the future.
