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 high incidence and mortality of lung cancer make early detection of lung cancer particularly important. At present, the diagnosis of lung cancer mainly depends on diagnostic imaging and tissue biopsy. However, current diagnostics are not satisfactory owing to the low specificity and inability of multiple sampling. Accumulating evidence indicates that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a critical role in cancer progression and are promising cancer biomarkers. In particular, circRNAs are considered novel specific diagnostic markers for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Liquid biopsy is an important method in the early diagnosis of cancer due to its high sensitivity and specificity, as well as the possibility of performing multiple sampling. circRNAs are stably present in exosomes and sometimes become part of circulating nucleic acids, making them ideal for liquid biopsy. In this review, we summarize the advances in the research on circRNAs in NSCLC, and also highlight their potential applications for NSCLC detection.
