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

MATERIALS AND

methodsClinicopathological data of 185 patients with NPC treated at Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University between January 2013 and December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. SPSS statistical software was used to analyze the clinicopathological data related to radiotherapy efficacy. Three patients who achieved complete remission and three with disease progression after CRT were selected. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened via mRNA microarray analysis of primary diagnostic endoscopy specimens.

resultsThe peripheral blood leukocyte count, platelet count, and EBV-DNA copy number in NPC patients who were resistant to radiotherapy were higher than those in NPC patients who were sensitive to radiotherapy. The RobustRankAggreg (RRA) analysis method identified 392 DEGs, and the 66 most closely related genes among the DEGs were identified from the PPI network.

conclusionThe results of this study indicate that screening for DEGs and pathways in NPC using integrated in silico analyses can help identify a series of genetic and clinical signatures for NPC patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
