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

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most malignant cancers with poor prognosis worldwide. Emerging evidence indicates that competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) are involved in various diseases, however, the regulatory mechanisms of ceRNAs underlying HNSCC remain unclear. In this study, we retrieved differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (DElncRNAs), messenger RNAs (DEmRNAs) and microRANs (DEmiRNAs) from The Cancer Genome Atlas database and constructed a ceRNA-based risk model in HNSCC by integrated bioinformatics approaches. Functional enrichment analyses showed that DEmRNAs might be involved in extracellular matrix related biological processes, and protein-protein interaction network further selected out prognostic genes, including MYL1 and ACTN2. Importantly, co-expressed RNAs identified by weighted co-expression gene network analysis constructed the ceRNA networks. Moreover, AC114730.3, AC136375.3, LAT and RYR3 were highly correlated to overall survival of HNSCC by Kaplan-Meier method and univariate Cox regression analysis, which were subsequently implemented multivariate Cox regression analysis to build the risk model. Our study provides a deeper understanding of ceRNAs on the regulatory mechanisms, which will facilitate the expansion of the roles on the ceRNAs in the tumorigenesis, development and treatment of HNSCC.
