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

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most frequently occurring life-threatening malignancies worldwide. Due to its high mortality rate, the discovery of putative biomarkers that may be sensitive and specific to GC is of seminal importance. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-translatable RNAs whose transcript length exceeds 200 base pairs. The dysregulation of lncRNA expression plays a key role in tumorigenesis and development. In the present study, the expression profiles of lncRNAs, microRNAs and mRNAs of 361 GC tissues (and 32 normal gastric tissues) were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Furthermore, differentially expressed RNAs were analyzed by the DEseq package. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analyses confirmed some significant dysregulated signaling pathways and target RNAs. As a result, an lncRNA-associated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was constructed. Kaplan-Meier analysis of the differentially expressed RNAs associated with GC pathogenesis confirmed that the lncRNAs PVT1, HAND2-AS1 and ZNF667-AS1 were potentially associated with the prognosis of GC (P<0.05). The present study suggests the mechanism of ceRNA networks in GC, and further demonstrates that aberrant lncRNA expression may be used as an effective diagnostic tool (or target) for the prognosis of GC.
