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

(1) Background: Lymph node (LN) status is an indubitable prognostic factor for survival among colon cancer patients. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in the development and progression of many cancers and are potential biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Therefore, we validated candidate biomarkers using circulating miRNAs by analyzing the plasma miRNA concentrations from patients with colon cancer to predict LN metastasis. (2) Methods: This study included 79 blood samples from patients diagnosed with colon cancer. The NanoString assay was used for screening, and TaqMan miRNA assays for quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test was used for validation. In a discovery set, we compared the expression of 800 circulating miRNAs in 24 samples (stage 0/I/IIA versus IIIB/IIIC). For validation, a total 79 samples were tested using quantitative RT-PCR. (3) Results: In the discovery set, 10 candidate circulating miRNAs were detected (4 up-regulated miRNAs: miR-323a-3p, miR-382-5p, miR-29a-3p, and miR-376a-3p; 6 down-regulated miRNAs: miR-26a-5p, let-7g-5p, miR-15b-5p, miR-142-3p, miR-374a-5p, and let-7b-5p). In the validation set, higher expression of three circulating miRNAs (miR-323a-3p, miR-382-5p, and miR-376a-3p) was significantly associated with LN metastasis (
