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

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most fatal malignancies of the digestive tract, but its underlying molecular mechanisms are not known. We aim to identify the genes involved in ESCC carcinogenesis and discover potential prognostic markers using integrated bioinformatics analysis. Three pairs of ESCC tissues and paired normal tissues were sequenced by high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Integrated bioinformatics analysis was used to identify differentially expressed coding genes (DECGs) and differentially expressed long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) genes (DELGs). A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of DECGs was established using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING) website and visualized with Cytoscape. Survival analysis was conducted by log-rank tests to identify "hub" genes with potential prognostic value, and real-time reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was conducted to assess expression of these genes in ESCC tissues.
