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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for approximately 15% of all breast cancer cases. TNBC is highly aggressive and associated with poor prognosis. The present study aimed to compare gene expression between TNBC patients with pathological complete response (pCR) and those with not complete response (nCR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Microarray data of 16 TNBC patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy were identified from the Gene Expression Omnibus database and 10 patients of them had pCR. We found that 250 coding genes and 155 long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) were statistically differentially expressed between patients with pCR and nCR. Receiver operator characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were calculated to assess predictive value of differentially expressed genes. A gene signature of three coding genes and two lncRNA was developed: 2.318*TCF3 + 7.349*CREB1 + 0.891*CEP44 + 0.091*NR_023392.1 + 1.424*NR_048561.1 - 106.682. The gene signature was further validated and had an AUC = 0.829. In summary, we profiled gene expression in pCR patients and developed a gene signature, which was effective to predict pCR among TNBC patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
