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

backgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common neoplasm located in the liver. Accumulating evidence has highlighted that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are correlated with the survival of HCC patients. This study focuses on finding a lncRNA signature to predict the prognostic risk of HCC patients.

methodsStatistical and machine learning analyses were conducted to analyze the lncRNA expression data and corresponding clinical data of 180 HCC patients collected from the public online Tanric and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases.

resultsFrom the training dataset, we obtained the four-lncRNA model comprising RP11-495K9.6, RP11-96O20.2, RP11-359K18.3, and LINC00556 which can divide HCC patients into two different groups with significantly different prognosis (n = 90, median 1.81, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.50-4.91 vs 8.56 years, 95% CI: 6.96-9.97, log-rank test P < .001). The test dataset confirmed the prognostic ability of the signature (n = 90, median 1.95, 95% CI: 1.14-4.08 vs 5.80 years, 95% CI: 3.11-6.82, log-rank test P = .007). Receiver operating characteristic curve displayed the better prediction efficiency of the four-lncRNA signature than the tumor/node/metastasis stage. Cox analysis showed the four-lncRNA signature was an independent predictor of HCC prognosis.

conclusionThe four-lncRNA signature can be used as an independent biomarker for HCC patients to predict the prognostic risk.
