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

The aim of this study was to validate prostate cancer-associated genes on transcript level and to assess the prognostic value of the most promising markers by immunohistochemistry. Based on differentially expressed genes found in a previous study, 84 genes were further validated using mRNA expression data and follow-up information from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) prostate cancer cohort (n = 497). Immunohistochemistry was used for validation of three genes in an independent, clinically annotated prostatectomy patient cohort (n = 175) with biochemical relapse as endpoint. Also, associations with clinicopathological variables were evaluated. Eleven protein-coding genes from the list of 84 genes were associated with biochemical recurrence-free survival on mRNA expression level in multivariate Cox-analyses. Three of these genes (TSPAN1, ESRP1 and KIAA1324) were immunohistochemically validated using an independent cohort of prostatectomy patients. Both ESRP1 and KIAA1324 were independently associated with biochemical recurrence-free survival. TSPAN1 was univariately prognostic but failed significance on multivariate analysis, probably due to its strong correlation with high Gleason scores. Multistep filtering using the publicly available TCGA cohort, data of an earlier expression profiling study which profiled 3023 cancer-associated transcripts in 42 primary prostate cancer cases, identified two novel candidate prognostic markers (ESRP1 and KIAA1324) of primary prostate cancer for further study.
