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

DNA hypermethylation in tumor suppressor genes has been reported in some cancers. The microRNA-34b/c (miR-34b/c) serves as tumor suppressors in different tumor types. To investigate the methylation status of miR-34b/c in ESCC, MALDI-TOF MS was used to quantitatively analyze the DNA methylation of 16 CpG sites within miR-34b/c in 145 ESCC samples, 60 cancer-adjacent normal (ACN) samples and 39 normal esophageal (NE) samples from the Kazakh population. Our results showed that the overall average methylation levels of miR-34b/c were significantly higher in the ESCC samples than they were in the ACN and NE samples (
