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

objectiveTo study the association between the expression of peritumoral circWDR25 (hsa-circRNA-0004310) secreted by hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and the prognosis of the patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after curative resection.

methodsHSCs cell line LX-2 was co-cultured separately with 3 liver cancer cell lines (Hep3B, SMMC-7721, and HCCLM3) in Transwell chambers to obtain tumor cell-activated HSCs. The supernatants of HSC cultures were collected to isolate the exosomes, from which total RNA was extracted to detect circRNA expression profile. We also collected specimens of paracancerous liver tissues from 288 HCC patients undergoing radical resection in our department from January, 2014 to October, 2015, and the expression levels of circWDR25 and α-SMA were detected with in situ hybridization. Log-rank test and Cox regression analysis were used for univariate and multivariate analysis of the factors affecting the patients' prognosis, respectively.

resultsGene expression profiling revealed that the expression of circWDR25 was the most obviously up-regulated in the exosomes isolated from tumor-activated LX-2 cells. The expression of peritumoral circWDR25 was positively correlated with HSCs adjacent to the cancer loci (

conclusionPeritumoral circWDR25 and HSCs are factors affecting the prognosis of HCC patients after radical hepatectomy, and their high expression in the adjacent tissues is closely related to a poor prognosis of the patients.
