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

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in China and is the highest cause of mortality among male and female patients, both in urban and rural areas. A subset of patients with lung cancer only display chest tightness without any other obvious symptoms. This is because most symptoms do not manifest during the early stages of disease development. Consequently, most patients with lung cancer are diagnosed when the disease is in the advanced stages, when they are already unfit for surgical treatment. Furthermore, the prognosis of patients with lung cancer is poor. The 5-year survival rate of patients with stage IA lung cancer is 85%, compared with 6% in those with stage IV. This requires the development of strategies for early diagnosis, treatment and prognosis to improve the management of lung cancer. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) belong to a class of closed circular non-coding RNAs formed by reverse splicing of a precursor mRNA. These RNAs are highly stable, ubiquitously expressed, conserved, and show high specificity. CircRNAs regulate biological processes, such as the proliferation, differentiation and invasion of lung cancer cells. Therefore, they can be used as biomarkers for the early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of lung cancer, as well as novel targets for therapy design. In the present review, the biological characteristics and functions of circRNAs, as well as their application in the diagnosis, control of drug resistance and effect on the prognosis of patients with lung cancer, will be discussed.
