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 squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is often diagnosed at the advanced stage with poor prognosis. The mechanisms of its pathogenesis and prognosis require urgent elucidation. This study was performed to screen potential biomarkers related to the occurrence, development and prognosis of LUSC to reveal unknown physiological and pathological processes. Using bioinformatics analysis, the lung squamous cell carcinoma microarray datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases were analyzed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Furthermore, PPI and WGCNA network analysis were integrated to identify the key genes closely related to the process of LUSC development. In addition, survival analysis was performed to achieve a prognostic model that accomplished good prediction accuracy. Three hundred and thirty-seven up-regulated and 119 down-regulated genes were identified, in which four genes have been found to play vital roles in LUSC development, namely CCNA2, AURKA, AURKB, and FEN1. The prognostic model contained 5 genes, which were all detrimental to prognosis. The AUC of the established prognostic model for predicting the survival of patients at 1, 3, and 5 years was 0.692, 0.722, and 0.651 in the test data, respectively. In conclusion, this study identified several biomarkers of significant interest for additional investigation of the therapies and methods of prognosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma.
