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

backgroundPrognostic biomarkers remain a focus in breast cancer during last decades. More reliable predictors to adequately characterize the prognosis of breast cancer are essential. The 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetases (OAS), composing of OAS1, OAS2, OAS3, and OAS-like (OASL), are interferon (IFN)-induced antiviral enzymes, with their prognostic roles remain to be characterized.

methodsPrognostic values of OAS family members were assessed by multiple public available resources.

resultsHigh mRNA expression of OAS1 and OAS3 were correlated with worse prognosis for all breast cancer patients, whereas OAS2 was associated with favorable prognosis. The prognostic values of OAS family in different clinicopathologic subtypes were also characterized. In DNA methylation level, cg12560128 in OAS2, cg06800840 and cg26328872 in OASL showed significant prognostic values. The mRNA expression of OAS members signature in high/low risk overall survival groups was opposite to the high/low risk recurrence free survival groups. Neutrophil cell exhibited highest correlation with all OAS members in tumor immune infiltrating estimation.

conclusionsThis study provided new insight into the prognostic roles of OAS in breast cancer with potential mechanistic values.
