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

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a type of cancer originating from the pleura with high aggressiveness and poor prognosis. A timely diagnosis is crucial to improve its prognosis. Laboratory biomarkers have significant advantages of reduced invasiveness, low cost, and are observer-independent, and therefore represent a promising diagnostic tool for MPM. MicroRNA is a family of non-coding RNA that regulates gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Accumulated studies showed that microRNA, either in tissue, circulating, and body fluid, has potential diagnostic value for various disorders. Here, we reviewed the diagnostic value of microRNA for MPM.
