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

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common form of messenger RNA (mRNA) modification. An increasing number of studies have proven that m6A RNA methylation regulators are overexpressed in many cancers and participate in the development of cancer through the dynamic regulation of m6A RNA methylation regulators. However, the prognostic role of m6A RNA methylation regulators in bladder cancer (BC) is poorly understood. In the present study, we downloaded the mRNA expression data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the corresponding clinical and prognostic information. The relationship between m6A RNA methylation regulators and clinicopathological variables of BC patients was assessed by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The expression of the m6A RNA methylation regulators was differentially associated with different clinicopathological variables of BC patients. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression model was then applied to identify three m6A RNA methylation regulators. The risk signature was constructed as follows: 0.164FTO - (0.081YTHDC1+0.032WTAP). Based on the risk signature, the risk score of each patient was calculated, and the patients were divided into a high-risk group and a low-risk group. The overall survival (OS) rate of the high-risk group was significantly lower than that of the low-risk group. The risk signature was not only an independent prognostic marker for BC patients but also a predictor of clinicopathological variables. In conclusion, m6A RNA methylation regulators can participate in the malignant progression of BC, and a risk signature with three selected m6A RNA methylation regulators may be a promising prognostic biomarker to guide personalized treatment for BC patients.
