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

backgroundThere is an emerging concept that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in tumorigenesis and could be used as biomarkers. However, the clinical significance of human translational regulatory lncRNA (treRNA) in CRC is largely unknown. The purpose of the study was to examine the value of treRNA as a biomarker in colorectal cancer patients.

methodstreRNA expression was studied in 78 tumors and adjacent tissues in colorectal cancer patients using quantitative real-time PCR.

resultstreRNA was found to be highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissue in contrast to adjacent tissue (P<0.05). Moreover, positive correlation was found between high treRNA expression and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Patients with high treRNA expression were found with compromised overall survival (OS) compared with the low treRNA expression group, according to Kaplan-Meier analysis. Moreover, Cox regression model analysis suggested high expression of treRNA as an independent poor prognostic factor for CRC patients.

conclusionsOverexpression of treRNA could be associated with lymphatic metastasis and compromised survival of CRC. treRNA has potential to be used as a new biomarker for CRC lymphatic metastasis and survival.
