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

backgroundThis work aims to analyze the relationship between necroptosis-related microRNAs (miRNAs) and the prognosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).

methodsThe miRNAs expression profiles of ccRCC and normal renal tissues from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database were used to construct a matrix of the 13 necroptosis-related miRNAs. Cox regression analysis was used to construct a signature to predict the overall survival of ccRCC patients. The genes targeted by the necroptosis-related miRNAs in the prognostic signature were predicted using miRNA databases. Gene Ontology (Go) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were used to investigate the genes targeted by the necroptosis-related miRNAs. The expression levels of selected miRNAs in 15 paired samples (of ccRCC tissues and adjacent normal renal tissues) were investigated using reverse transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR).

resultsSix necroptosis-related miRNAs were found to differentially expressed between ccRCC and normal renal tissues. A prognostic signature consisting of miR-223-3p, miR-200a-5p, and miR-500a-3p was constructed using Cox regression analysis and risk scores were calculated. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the hazard ratio was 2.0315 (1.2627-3.2685, P = 0.0035), indicating that the risk score of the signature was an independent risk factor. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that the signature has a favorable predictive capacity and the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that ccRCC patients with higher risk scores had worse prognoses (P < 0.001). The results of the RT-qPCR verified that all three miRNAs used in the signature were differentially expressed between ccRCC and normal tissues (P < 0.05).

conclusionThe three necroptosis-related-miRNAs used in this study could be a valuable signature for the prognosis of ccRCC patients. Necroptosis-related miRNAs should be further explored as prognostic indicators for ccRCC.
