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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous disease that has multiple etiologies. It is the most common primary liver cancer, the sixth highest cause of cancer incidences, and the fourth highest cause of cancer-related deaths. The discovery of new biomarkers for the early detection, treatment, and prognosis of HCC would therefore be extremely useful. This study investigated differentially expressed ribonucleic acid (RNA) profiles by constructing a genome-wide profile of clinical samples. Differential expression analysis identified 1,280 differentially expressed messenger RNAs (dif-mRNAs), 99 differentially expressed microRNAs (dif-miRNAs), 181 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (dif-lncRNAs), and 31 differentially expressed circular RNAs (dif-circRNAs). Gene ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) path analysis were then conducted on these differentially expressed RNAs, revealing that they were clearly related to cell division, foreign body metabolism, and ribosome assembly. A competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was then constructed based on the regulatory dif-miRNA-dif-mRNA and dif-miRNA-dif-lncRNA relationships. These results were also verified using HCC data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA); seven dif-miRNAs were verified in clinical samples by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that the expression levels of Hsa-miR-1269a, Hsa-miR-421, and Hsa-miR-190b were correlated with overall survival. (
