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

Small ubiquitin-like modifier 1 pseudogene 3 (SUMO1P3) is a novel identified long non-coding RNA that is upregulated in several cancers and exerts its oncogenic effects via multiple pathways. SUMO1P3 was significantly higher in HCC tissues and cells than in non-cancerous specimens and normal cells. SUMO1P3 knockdown inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC cells. In the present study, we investigated the clinical significance and prognostic value of SUMO1P3 in HCC.A total of 123 patients were pathologically diagnosed as primary HCC and underwent surgical resection at the Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from March 2014 to November 2019. The expression differences between HCC tissues and matched normal tissues were analyzed using paired Student's t test. Chi-squared test was used for correlation analysis. Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method and were compared via the log-rank test. The independent prognostic value of SUMO1P3 expression was evaluated using results from univariate and multivariate Cox regression models.As revealed by quantitative RT-PCR analysis, SUMO1P 3 expression level was significantly higher in HCC cancer tissues compared with normal adjacent tissues (mean ± SD: 4.341 ± 1.320 vs 1.000 ± 0.3666, P < .001). The χ test showed that the SUMO1P 3 expression level was significantly associated with tumor size (P = .031), capsular invasion (P = .011), vascular invasion (P = .004), Edmondson-Steiner grade (P = .002), and TNM stage (P = .001). The patients with high SUMO1P 3 expression showed shorter 5-year overall survival than those with low SUMO1P 3 expression (P = .034; log-rank test). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the status of SUMO1P 3 expression was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival (HR = 2.107, 95% CI: 1.478-9.014, P = .031).The expression levels of SUMO1P 3 may be a reliable prognostic biomarker to predict the clinical outcomes in patients with HCC.
