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

Circular RNA (circRNA) is a type of non-coding RNA known to affect cancer-related micro RNAs and various transcription factors. circRNA has promise as a cancer-related biomarker because its circular structure affords high stability. We found using high-throughput sequencing that seven candidate circRNAs (hsa_circ_0041150, hsa_circ_0025624, hsa_circ_0001020, hsa_circ_0028129, hsa_circ_0008558, hsa_circ_0036683, hsa_circ_0058087) were downregulated in HCC. The expression of these circRNAs was examined by quantitative PCR in 233 sets of HCC and matched background normal liver tissues, and correlations between candidate circRNA expression and prognosis were evaluated. The results of quantitative PCR showed that expression of hsa_circ_0041150, hsa_circ_0001020 and hsa_circ_0008558 was significantly lower in HCC than in background normal liver tissues. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that low expression of hsa_circ_0001020, hsa_circ_0036683, and hsa_circ_0058087 was associated with poor recurrence-free (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in HCC. Additionally, multivariate analysis revealed that low hsa_circ_0036683 expression was a significant prognostic factor, independent from other clinicopathological features, for inferior RFS and OS. There was no significant association between the expression of these circRNAs and hepatitis B/C status or cirrhosis. This study therefore identified circRNAs as potential prognostic markers for patients who undergo curative surgery for HCC and highlighted hsa_circ_0036683 as the most useful biomarker.
