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

purposePlasma extracellular vesicle (EV) miRNAs are important biomarkers for body fluid biopsy. The purpose of this study was to screen and construct a plasma small EV (sEV) miRNA panel as a biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC).

methodsPlasma sEV miRNAs from 6 LSCC patients with three typical anatomical sites and 3 normal controls (NCs) were analyzed by next-generation sequencing. The aberrant expression profile of sEV miRNAs was compared with the online databases of LSCC to construct and verify the diagnostic and prognostic panel by machine learning. Additionally, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‒PCR) was performed to validate the diagnostic efficacy of the screened miRNAs in an independent clinical cohort.

resultsA plasma sEV miRNA panel (consisting of hsa-miR-139-3p, hsa-miR-486-5p, hsa-miR-944, hsa-miR-320b and hsa-miR-455-5p) was successfully constructed for the early diagnosis and prognosis of LSCC and showed good predictive potential with AUCs of 0.782, 1.000, 0.716, and 0.875 by an artificial neural network (ANN) panel in independent datasets. This panel was further validated in an independent cohort consisting of 84 clinical cases (48 LSCC and 36 NCs). In the validation cohort, the AUC of the 5 individual miRNAs ranged from 0.721 to 0.837. The accuracy was further increased by the logistic model, which further increased the AUC to 0.959 by adjusting for the number of miRNAs. The miRNA‒mRNA regulatory network and immune function analysis revealed the possible underlying pathogenesis of LSCC.

conclusionPlasma sEV miRNA panels can be promising plasma biomarkers for predicting early diagnosis and prognosis in LSCC.
