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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) is the second most frequent cause of cancer-related mortality in the world, and the five-year survival rate for GC remains very low universally. In recent years, it has become a consensus that genetic changes are associated with carcinogenesis of GC, and precision medicine based on genetic changes is one of the most popular treatments for GC patients. However, the association between some genes and GC-related protein signaling pathways is still not well understood. This study revealed that seven genes were closely related to the survival probability in GC patients.

methodsWe downloaded the gene expression data of GC patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases, and integrated bioinformatic analysis was performed, such as differential gene expression analysis, including Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) pathways analyses, as well as survival analysis. The r package "survival" was used to analyze the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, which showed the associations between specific gene expressions and the outcomes of patients with GC to identify which genes could be potential prognostic biomarkers.

resultsThis study revealed that seven genes: alcohol dehydrogenase 4 (ADH4), histamine receptor H3 (HRH3), neuropeptide Y2 receptor (NPY2R), apolipoprotein AI (APOA1), N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 14 (GALNT14), leucine-rich repeats and IQ motif containing 1 (LRRIQ1), and coiled-coil-domain-containing 57 (CCDC57). These seven genes were closely related to the survival probability of GC patients (P<0.05).

conclusionsOur study found seven genes which could be considered as candidate prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
