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

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a poor prognosis due to the difficulty of its diagnosis. Because human satellite II (HSATII) RNA, a satellite repeat RNA, is highly and specifically expressed in human PDAC, the serum HSATII RNA level may be a biomarker of PDAC. To measure the serum HSATII RNA level with high sensitivity and reproducibility, we previously developed a convenient method, tandem repeat amplification by nuclease protection (TRAP) combined with droplet digital PCR (ddPCR). Here, we refined the original method by simultaneously measuring the serum miR-21-5p level to enhance the detection of PDAC. The resulting PDAC-Index, constructed using serum HSATII RNA and miR-21-5p levels, discriminated patients with PDAC with high accuracy. We verified the clinical usefulness of the PDAC-Index as a supportive test in difficult-to-diagnose cases. The PDAC-Index has satisfactory diagnostic performance and may routinely be applied for detecting PDAC.
