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

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. In China, in particular, lung cancer mortality has markedly increased and is likely to continue to rise. RNA-binding proteins are pivotal to the development and progression of a variety of cancer types, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). RNA-binding motif protein 47 (RBM47) has been found to act as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer and NSCLC. However, to the best of our knowledge, RBM47 expression in NSCLC tissues has yet to be investigated. Analysis via the online database, Gene Expression Omnibus, revealed that RBM47 was upregulated in NSCLC and associated with pathological type, suggesting that RBM47 may play different roles in lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma. In the present study, the expression of RBM47 was examined by immunohistochemistry in 175 pairs of tumor and adjacent non-cancerous tissues resected from patients with NSCLC. The results indicated that the expression of RBM47 was significantly increased in NSCLC samples compared with that in the matched non-cancerous samples. Furthermore, RBM47 expression was higher in Xuanwei compared with that in non-Xuanwei NSCLC, suggesting that RBM47 is a more sensitive biomarker in Xuanwei NSCLC, and that it may serve as a candidate therapeutic target. In addition, RBM47 expression was associated with the pathological type, however not with the age, sex, lymph node metastasis, pT stage or pathological Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage of the patients. The increased expression level of RBM47 may indicate a worse overall survival rate for patients with NSCLC. In addition, multivariate survival analysis showed that the Xuanwei area is associated with poor prognosis for patients with NSCLC. In conclusion, the present study revealed that the upregulation of RBM47 accelerated the malignant progression of NSCLC, indicating that RBM47 may be a potential biomarker for NSCLC progression and a therapeutic target for NSCLC.
