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

backgroundIn gastric cancer (GC), circular RNAs (circRNAs) mainly play an important role in miRNA sponge, which not only indicate long-term survival and prognosis but also increase resistance to the apoptosis. The purpose of the study is to explore new circRNAs and their underlying mechanisms in GC.

methodThrough rigorous retrieval strategies, we used the sva package to analyze and identify differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs) from three Gene Expression Omnibus microarray datasets (GSE83521, GSE89143, and GSE78092). Online website CSCD and CircInteractome were used to reveal the binding sites between miRNAs and DECs. The possible target miRNAs of the DECs identified based on miRNAs, and Cytoscape was used to create a regulatory network of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA and identified the hub genes which were further validated using The Cancer Genome Atlas database and Human Protein Atlas.

resultsTwenty-eight DECs were obtained using the sva package. A regulatory network of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA (competing endogenous RNA) containing 15 circRNAs, 24 miRNAs, and 158 genes was identified. A protein-protein interaction network based on the 158 genes was established, and further determined that 10 hub genes (SKA1, ANLN, CHEK1, SKA3, TOP2A, BIRC5, RRM2, NCAPG2, FANCI, and RAD51) were associated with some cancer-related pathways based on the functional enrichment analysis. Finally, six hub genes (BIRC5, TOP2A, FANCI, NCAPG2, RAD51, and RRM2) were proven to influence the overall survival of GC.

conclusionOur study established a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network and defined six circRNA-related hub genes in GC, which could serve as potential therapeutic targets or prognostic biomarker for GC treatment.
