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

backgroundOwing to the high morbidity and mortality, ovarian cancer has seriously endangered female health. Development of reliable models can facilitate prognosis monitoring and help relieve the distress.

methodsUsing the data archived in the TCPA and TCGA databases, proteins having significant survival effects on ovarian cancer patients were screened by univariate Cox regression analysis. Patients with complete information concerning protein expression, survival, and clinical variables were included. A risk model was then constructed by performing multiple Cox regression analysis. After validation, the predictive power of the risk model was assessed. The prognostic effect and the biological function of the model were evaluated using co-expression analysis and enrichment analysis.

results394 patients were included in model construction and validation. Using univariate Cox regression analysis, we identified a total of 20 proteins associated with overall survival of ovarian cancer patients (p < 0.01). Based on multiple Cox regression analysis, six proteins (GSK3α/β, HSP70, MEK1, MTOR, BAD, and NDRG1) were used for model construction. Patients in the high-risk group had unfavorable overall survival (p < 0.001) and poor disease-specific survival (p = 0.001). All these six proteins also had survival prognostic effects. Multiple Cox regression analysis demonstrated the risk model as an independent prognostic factor (p < 0.001). In receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the risk model displayed higher predictive power than age, tumor grade, and tumor stage, with an area under the curve value of 0.789. Analysis of co-expressed proteins and differentially expressed genes based on the risk model further revealed its prognostic implication.

conclusionsThe risk model composed of GSK3α/β, HSP70, MEK1, MTOR, BAD, and NDRG1 could predict survival prognosis of ovarian cancer patients efficiently and help disease management.
