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

backgroundRNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play important roles in cellular homeostasis by regulating the expression of thousands of transcripts, which have been reported to be involved in human tumorigenesis. Despite previous reports of the dysregulation of RBPs in cancers, the degree of dysregulation of RBPs in cancers and the intrinsic relevance between dysregulated RBPs and clinical TNM information remains unknown. Furthermore, the co-expressed networks of dysregulated RBPs with transcriptional factors and lncRNAs also require further investigation.

resultsHere, we firstly analyzed the deviations of expression levels of 1,542 RBPs from 20 cancer types and found that (1) RBPs are dysregulated in almost all 20 cancer types, especially in BLCA, COAD, READ, STAD, LUAD, LUSC and GBM with proportion of deviation larger than 300% compared with non-RBPs in normal tissues. (2) Up- and down-regulated RBPs also show opposed patterns of differential expression in cancers and normal tissues. In addition, down-regulated RBPs show a greater degree of dysregulated expression than up-regulated RBPs do. Secondly, we analyzed the intrinsic relevance between dysregulated RBPs and clinical TNM information and found that (3) Clinical TNM information for two cancer types-CHOL and KICH-is shown to be closely related to patterns of differentially expressed RBPs (DE RBPs) by co-expression cluster analysis. Thirdly, we identified ten key RBPs (seven down-regulated and three up-regulated) in CHOL and seven key RBPs (five down-regulated and two up-regulated) in KICH by analyzing co-expression correlation networks. Fourthly, we constructed the co-expression networks of key RBPs between 1,570 TFs and 4,147 lncRNAs for CHOL and KICH, respectively.

conclusionsThese results may provide an insight into the understanding of the functions of RBPs in human carcinogenesis. Furthermore, key RBPs and the co-expressed networks offer useful information for potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for patients with cancers at the
