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

Lung adenocarcinoma, a type of non-small cell lung cancer, is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Great efforts have been made to identify the underlying mechanism of adenocarcinoma, especially in relation to oncogenes. The present study by integrating computational analysis with western blotting, aimed to understand the role of the upregulation of glucosamine-phosphate N-acetyltransferase 1 (GNPNAT1) in carcinogenesis. In the present study, publicly available gene expression profiles and clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas to determine the role of GNPNAT1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). In addition, the association between LUAD susceptibility and GNPNAT1 upregulation were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test and logistic regression analysis. In LUAD, GNPNAT1 upregulation was significantly associated with disease stage [odds ratio (OR)=2.92, stage III vs. stage I], vital status (dead vs. alive, OR=1.89), cancer status (tumor status vs. tumor-free status, OR=1.85) and N classification (yes vs. no, OR=1.75). Cox regression analysis and the Kaplan-Meier method were utilized to evaluate the association between GNPNAT1 expression and overall survival (OS) time in patients with LUAD. The results demonstrated that patients with increased GNPNAT1 expression levels exhibited a reduced survival rate compared with those with decreased expression levels (P=8.9×10
