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

The aim of the present study was to identify candidate prognostic DNA methylation biomarkers for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), since the modern precise medicine for the treatment of LUAD requires more biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets of interest. DNA methylation profiling data of LUAD were downloaded from The Cancer Gene Atlas portal. Differentially methylated genes (DMGs) were screened to differentiate between samples designated as good and bad prognosis. LUAD-associated methylation modules were obtained with the weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) package, followed by function enrichment analysis. Optimal prognostic DMGs were selected using the LASSO estimation-based Cox-PH approach and were used to construct a prognostic risk scoring system. The training set was dichotomized by risk score, into high- and low-risk groups. The differences in overall survival (OS) time or recurrence-free survival (RFS) time between the two groups were evaluated using a Kaplan-Meier curve. A total of 742 DMG samples were screened for good and bad prognosis. WGCNA identified three LUAD-associated modules, which were primarily associated with cytoskeleton organization, transcription and apoptosis. A nine-gene prognostic methylation signature was determined, which included
