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

backgroundThe incidence and prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease related hepatocellular carcinoma (NAFLD-HCC) are rapidly increasing worldwide. This study aimed to identify biomarker genes for prognostic prediction model of NAFLD-HCC hepatectomy by integrating text-mining, clinical follow-up information, transcriptomic data and experimental validation.

methodsThe tumor and adjacent normal liver samples collected from 13 NAFLD-HCC and 12 HBV-HCC patients were sequenced using RNA-Seq. A novel text-mining strategy, explainable gene ontology fingerprint approach, was utilized to screen NAFLD-HCC featured gene sets and cell types, and the results were validated through a series of lab experiments. A risk score calculated by the multivariate Cox regression model using discovered key genes was established and evaluated based on 47 patients' follow-up information.

resultsDifferentially expressed genes associated with NAFLD-HCC specific tumor microenvironment were screened, of which FABP4 and VWF were featured by previous reports. A risk prediction model consisting of FABP4, VWF, gender and TNM stage were then established based on 47 samples. The model showed that overall survival in the high-risk score group was lower compared with that in the low-risk score group (p = 0.0095).

conclusionsThis study provided the landscape of NAFLD-HCC transcriptome, and elucidated that our model could predict hepatectomy prognosis with high accuracy.
