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

backgroundOvarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OSC) is the most common and lethal gynecological cancer in women worldwide; however, biomarkers to diagnose and predict prognosis of OSC remain limited. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate whether sodium/potassium adenosine triphosphate (Na

methodsGene expression data (RNA-Seq) of 376 patients with OSC were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) program database. Additional databases used in our analysis included the Gene Expression Omnibus, International Cancer Genome Consortium, Genotype-Tissue Expression, the Human Protein Atlas, cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics, and Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia.

resultsThe expression levels of ATP1A1 and ATP1A3 were higher in OSC tissues than in normal ovarian tissues, whereas the expression levels of ATP1A2 and ATP1A4 were lower in OSC tissues than in normal ovarian tissues. Overexpression of ATP1A2 was significantly associated with a higher Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage and histological grade. Increased mRNA expression of ATP1A3 was significantly associated with shorter overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) in patients with OSC, whereas higher expression of ATP1A4 was associated with favorable OS and DSS. Multivariate analysis showed that primary therapy outcome, residual tumor, and mRNA expressions of ATP1A3 and ATP1A4 were independent prognostic factors for both OS and DSS in patients with OSC. Moreover, ATP1A1 staining was abundant in tumor tissues. A high expression of ATP1A3 was significantly correlated with poor OS and DSS in the subgroup of patients aged ≥ 60 years and with FIGO stage III, histological grade G3, and TP53 mutation. Mutation frequencies of the ATP1As were 3-5%.

conclusionsThese results indicate that the ATP1A gene family could be potential diagnostic or prognostic markers of OSC. In addition, ATP1As may be effective therapeutic targets in the treatment of OSC.
