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

purposemiR-500a-3p has been extensively reported to be implicated in the development and progression in several human cancer types. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic significance of miR-500a-3p as a biomarker in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

methodsmiR-500a-3p expression was evaluated by in situ hybridization (ISH) and real-time PCR in 10 adjacent normal tissues (ANT), 21 liver fibrosis tissues, and 110 HCC tissues. Statistical analysis was used to investigate the correlation of miR-500a-3p expression with clinicopathological features in HCC patients. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to evaluate the prognostic significance of miR-500a-3p in overall survival and recurrence-free survival in HCC patients.

resultsIn this study, we found that expression levels of miR-500a-3p were enhanced in HCC tissues. High miR-500a-3p levels were positively correlated with multiple clinicopathological features, including advanced clinical stage, distant metastatic status, increased AFP levels and poor tumor differentiation degree. More importantly, high miR-500a-3p levels predicted poor overall survival and early recurrence in HCC patients. Finally, a strong and positive correlation of miR-500a-3p mRNA expression with ISH staining scores was observed in clinical HCC tissues.

conclusionOur findings suggest that miR-500a-3p might be used as a novel biomarker to facilitate early diagnosis and predict prognosis in HCC patients.
