The diagnostic and prognostic value of miR-92a in gastric cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Open medicine (Warsaw, Poland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundmiR-92a is believed to have a significant role in the diagnosis and prognosis of different types of tumors, but the potential impact of its expression is still controversial due to the sample size. We conducted the meta-analysis to figure out whether miR-92a could be used as a detecting tool for assessing the prognosis of gastric cancer.
methodA literature search was conducted by retrieving the Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP (Technology of Chongqing databases), and Wanfang databases (last updated by February 2020). The sensitivity (SEN), specificity (SPE), positive and negative likelihood ratios (PLR and NLR), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and area under the ROC curve (AUC) were pooled to explore the diagnostic performance of miR-92a. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs of miR-92a for overall survival (OS) were calculated to explore the prognostic performance of miR-92a.
resultsNine articles containing 11 studies were included. The pooled SEN and SPE were 0.76 and 0.79. Besides, the pooled PLR and NLR were 3.7 and 0.30, and the pooled DOR was 12. AUC was 0.84, indicating a significant value of miR-92a in gastric cancer detection. For the prognostic analysis of miR-92a in gastric cancer, the univariate and multivariate data's poor OS were 1.37 and 2.01.
conclusionThe present meta-analysis demonstrated that miR-92a could be a potential biomarker for the detection of gastric cancer. miR-92a could also be used as a valuable indicator for predicting the prognosis of gastric cancer patients.
