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

Cervical and anal carcinoma are neoplastic diseases with various intraepithelial neoplasia stages. The underlying mechanisms for cancer initiation and progression have not been fully revealed. DNA methylation has been shown to be aberrantly regulated during tumorigenesis in anal and cervical carcinoma, revealing the important roles of DNA methylation signaling as a biomarker to distinguish cancer stages in clinics. In this research, several machine learning methods were used to analyze the methylation profiles on anal and cervical carcinoma samples, which were divided into three classes representing various stages of tumor progression. Advanced feature selection methods, including Boruta, LASSO, LightGBM, and MCFS, were used to select methylation features that are highly correlated with cancer progression. Some methylation probes including cg01550828 and its corresponding gene RNF168 have been reported to be associated with human papilloma virus-related anal cancer. As for biomarkers for cervical carcinoma, cg27012396 and its functional gene HDAC4 were confirmed to regulate the glycolysis and survival of hypoxic tumor cells in cervical carcinoma. Furthermore, we developed effective classifiers for identifying various tumor stages and derived classification rules that reflect the quantitative impact of methylation on tumorigenesis. The current study identified methylation signals associated with the development of cervical and anal carcinoma at qualitative and quantitative levels using advanced machine learning methods.
