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

backgroundHuman intracellular chloride channel 3 (CLIC3) is involved in the development of various cancers, but the expression and prognostic value of CLIC3 mRNA in bladder cancer (BC) remain unclear.

methodsThe gene expression data and clinical information of CLIC3 were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and verified in the Oncomine and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The expression of CLIC3 mRNA in BC tissues and adjacent normal tissues was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the relationship between the expression of CLIC3 mRNA and the prognosis of BC. Cox univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on the overall survival and tumor-specific survival of BC patients. The genes coexpressed with CLIC3 were analyzed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). CLIC3-related signal transduction pathways in BC were explored with gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA).

resultsThe expression of CLIC3 mRNA in BC tissues was higher than that in normal tissues (

conclusionsCLIC3 mRNA is highly expressed in BC, and its high expression is related to the adverse clinicopathological factors and prognosis of BC patients. CLIC3 can be used as a biomarker for the prognosis of BC patients.
