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

Background: It has been reported that ING3 inhibits the progression of various cancers. However, some studies have shown that it promotes the development of prostate cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether ING3 expression is associated with the prognosis of patients with cancer. Materials and methods: PubMed, Cochrane Database, Embase, Medline, ScienceDirect, Scopus and Web of Science were searched until September 2022. The hazard ratio (HR)/odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated using Stata 17 software. We used the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) to assess the risk of bias. Result: Seven studies involving 2371 patients with five types of cancer were included. The results showed that high expression of ING3 was negatively associated with a more advanced TNM stage (III-IV vs. I-II) (OR=0.61, 95% CI: 0.43-0.86), lymph node metastasis (OR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.49-0.90) and disease-free survival (HR=0.63, 95% CI: 0.37-0.88). However, ING3 expression was not associated with overall survival (HR=0.77, 95% CI: 0.41-1.12), tumor size (OR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.33-1.37), tumor differentiation (OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.36-2.09) and gender (OR=1.14, 95% CI: 0.78-1.66). Conclusion: This study showed that the expression of ING3 was associated with better prognosis, suggesting that ING3 may be a potential biomarker for cancer prognosis.
