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

backgroundTo determine the role of miRNA in the progression and outcome of renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC), establish a model for predicting outcome in patients with ccRCC and verify it using a Cox regression model. The miRNA target genes were predicted to understand their biological functions.

methodsThe microRNAs of 71 normal tissues and 545 tumor tissues were downloaded from TCGA (https://tcga-data.nci.nih.gov/tcga/). We also downloaded 537 clinical materials from this website. The miRNA difference analysis was carried out. A prognostic model was constructed using differential miRNA. The model was verified using Cox survival analysis, receiver operator characteristic (ROC), and independent predictive analysis.

resultsMiR-130b-3p, miR-365b-3p, miR-149-5p, miR-155-5p, and miR-144-5p can be used as independent prognostic indicators. We also analyzed the related functions of the target gene and found that target genes of miRNAs are involved in the signal pathways of some tumors, including cholesterol metabolism, HIF-1 signal pathway, focus adhesion, the Rap1 signal pathway, and hepatitis C.

conclusionsThe prognostic model constructed using five miRNAs is an independent and accurate factor. These miRNAs target genes are involved in regulating a variety of tumorigenesis and signal pathways. Therefore, we have reason to believe that the regulation of signal pathways by miRNA may play a critical role in the occurrence, development, and outcome of ccRCC, provide a new therapeutic target for ccRCC, and improve outcomes.
