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

purposeGastric cancer (GC) is a product of multiple genetic abnormalities, including genetic and epigenetic modifications. This study aimed to integrate various biomolecules, such as miRNAs, mRNA, and DNA methylation, into a genome-wide network and develop a nomogram for predicting the overall survival (OS) of GC. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 329 GC cases, as a training cohort with a random of 150 examples included as a validation cohort, were screened from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. A genome-wide network was constructed based on a combination of univariate Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analyses, and a nomogram was established to predict 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS in the training cohort. The nomogram was then assessed in terms of calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness in the validation cohort. Afterward, in order to confirm the superiority of the whole gene network model and further reduce the biomarkers for the improvement of clinical usefulness, we also constructed eight other models according to the different combinations of miRNAs, mRNA, and DNA methylation sites and made corresponding comparisons. Finally, Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were also performed to describe the function of this genome-wide network.

resultsA multivariate analysis revealed a novel prognostic factor, a genomics score (GS) comprising seven miRNAs, eight mRNA, and 19 DNA methylation sites. In the validation cohort, comparing to patients with low GS, high-GS patients (HR, 12.886;

conclusionWe successfully developed a GS based on genome-wide network, which may represent a novel prognostic factor for GC. A combination of GS and TNM staging provides additional precision in stratifying patients with different OS prognoses, constituting a more comprehensive sub-typing system. This could potentially play an important role in future clinical practice.
