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

backgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in tumor metastasis. The aim of the present study was to investigate their expression profile and potential functions in spinal metastasis (SM) of lung adenocarcinoma.

methodsWe conducted lncRNA and mRNA expression in lung adenocarcinoma and its SM tissue using microarray analysis. Quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) revealed 10 differentially expressed lncRNAs. Gene ontology and pathway analysis were performed to test the gene effect. Possible target genes of lncRNAs were predicted based on precise algorithms.

resultsMicroarray analysis found many significantly differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma compared with SM. qRT-PCR results aligned with those of the microarray analysis. The expression level of 10 lncRNAs showed the same trend (P<0.05). Biologic pathways known to be involved in cancer were identified among the differentially expressed mRNAs; these include cell adhesion molecules (related to 42 genes), focal adhesion (related to 31 genes), cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (related to 48 genes), and extracellular matrix-receptor interaction (related to 23 genes). About 9,458 lncRNAs were found to have cis- or trans-genes. A total of 2,317 cis target genes were discovered to be abnormally expressed and could be regulated by lncRNAs in SM of lung adenocarcinoma.

conclusionsOur results offer a genome-wide differential expression of lncRNA in lung adenocarcinoma and SM, as well as laying the foundation for further investigations of lncRNAs correlated with lung adenocarcinoma metastasis.
