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 greatest public challenges because of delayed diagnosis and poor prognosis. In this study, we established an autophagy-associated long non-coding (Lnc)RNA prognostic signature to assess the prognosis of HNSCC patients. The LncRNA expression profiles and clinical information of 499 HNSCC samples were available in The Cancer Genome Atlas. Autophagic LncRNAs were analyzed using Pearson correlation. A co-expression network showed the interactions between autophagic genes and LncRNAs. An autophagic LncRNAs prognostic signature, consisting of MYOSLID, AL139287.1, AC068580.1, AL022328.2, AC104083.1, AL160006.1, AC116914.2, LINC00958, and AL450992.2, was developed through uni- and multivariate Cox regressions. High- and low-risk groups were classified based on the median risk scores. The high-risk group had significantly worse overall survival according to Kaplan-Meier curve analysis. Multivariate Cox regression demonstrated that risk scores were a significant independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio = 1.739, 95% confidence interval: 1.460-2.072), with an area under the curve of 0.735. Principal component analysis distinguished two categories based on the nine-LncRNA prognostic signature. In conclusion, this novel autophagic LncRNA signature is an independent prognostic factor and may suggest novel therapeutic targets for HNSCC.
