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

backgroundUrothelial bladder cancer (BLCA) is one of the most common internal malignancies worldwide with poor prognosis. This study aims to explore effective prognostic biomarkers and construct a prognostic risk score model for patients with BLCA.

methodsWeighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used for identifying the co-expression module related to the pathological stage of BLCA based on the RNA-Seq data retrieved from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Prognostic biomarkers screened by Cox proportional hazard regression model and random forest were used to construct a risk score model that can predict the prognosis of patients with BLCA. The GSE13507 dataset was used as the independent testing dataset to test the performance of the risk score model in predicting the prognosis of patients with BLCA.

resultsWGCNA identified seven co-expression modules, in which the brown module consisted of 77 genes was most significantly correlated with the pathological stage of BLCA. Cox proportional hazard regression model and random forest identified TPST1 and P3H4 as prognostic biomarkers. Elevated TPST1 and P3H4 expressions were associated with the high pathological stage and worse survival. The risk score model based on the expression level of TPST1 and P3H4 outperformed pathological stage indicators and previously proposed prognostic models.

conclusionThe gene co-expression network-based study could provide additional insight into the tumorigenesis and progression of BLCA, and our proposed risk score model may aid physicians in the assessment of the prognosis of patients with BLCA.
