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

backgroundMounting evidence has shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can play a substantial role in gallbladder cancer (GBC) development as tumor promotors or suppressors, and their abnormal expression is relevant to GBC patient outcomes. We completed this systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the clinical significance and mechanisms of lncRNAs in GBC.

methodsWe conducted a comprehensive literature search and selected eligible records according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) were extracted or calculated to estimate the relationships of high lncRNA expression with GBC patient survival and clinical outcomes.

resultsEighteen studies were identified as eligible for this systematic review and meta-analysis. Heterogeneity among HRs of overall survival (OS) was notably high (I

conclusionAberrant expression of several lncRNAs was indicative of the prognosis of GBC patients, and lncRNAs showed promise as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for GBC.
