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

Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) can act as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) involving in tumor initiation and progression. Nevertheless, the prognostic roles of lncRNAs in lncRNA-related ceRNA network of melanoma remain elusive. In this study, RNA sequence profiles were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and there were 2020 differentially expressed messenger RNAs (DEmRNAs), 438 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) and 65 differentially expressed microRNAs (DEmiRNAs) between primary and metastasis melanoma patients. A ceRNA regulatory network was constructed based on the DElncRNAs-DEmiRNAs and DEmiRNAs-DEmRNAs interactions, which contained 39 lncRNAs, 10 miRNAs, and 16 mRNAs. Furthermore, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were carried out to establish a 7-lncRNA prognostic signature. Subsequently, the area under the curve (AUC) value of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the Kaplan-Meier risk survival analysis revealed the significant performance of this signature. Finally, pathway enrichment analyses implied that lncRNA MIR205HG and MIAT were associated with multiple cancer-related pathways, especially epidermis development and immune response. The current study provides novel insights into the lncRNA-related ceRNA network and the potential of lncRNAs to be candidate prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in melanoma.
