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

abstractTo identify serum microRNA-25 (miR-25) as a diagnostic biomarker for pancreatic cancer (PCa) and to evaluate its supplementary role with serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) in early identification of cancers.Eighty patients with pancreatic cancer and 91 non-cancer controls were enrolled in this study. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression level of miR-25. Levels of CA19-9, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) were measured by chemiluminescent immunoassay. The logistic model was established to evaluate the correlation of miR-25 with clinical characteristics. A risk model for PCa was conducted by R statistical software. Diagnostic utility for PCa and correlation with clinical characteristics were analyzed.The expression level of miR-25, in the PCa group was significantly higher (P < .05). Risk Model illustrated the relation between miR-25 and pancreatic cancer. With the combination of CA19-9, the performance of miR-25 in early stages (I+II) in the diagnosis of PCa was profoundly better than CA19-9 and miR-25 alone. This combination was more effective for discriminating PCa from non-cancer controls (AUC-ROC, 0.985; sensitivity, 97.50%; specificity, 90.11%) compared with CA19-9 alone or the combination of CA19-9 and CA125.The expression level of miR-25 among pancreatic cancer patients was significantly higher than that in the control group. miR-25 existed as one of the most relevant factors of PCa. miR-25 can serve as a novel noninvasive approach for PCa diagnosis, and with the supplementary of CA19-9, the combination was more effective, especially in early tumor screening.
