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

Ovarian cancer is typically diagnosed at an advanced stage, recurs early and often, and currently lacks effective treatment. Therefore, overall survival and progression-free survival are relatively short for this disease. Sensitive and specific biomarkers for early diagnosis and follow-up for effective treatment of the disease are currently lacking. MicroRNA (miRNA/miR) expression studies are widely used in cancer research. Disruption or malfunction of miRNAs, a class of noncoding small RNAs, has been implicated in cancer progression in several publications. Of note, the expression of a series of miRNAs is known to differ in ovarian cancer. In cancer research, it is crucial to analyze expression patterns in both cancer patients and healthy individuals to identify cancer-specific biological markers and to understand their role in cancer. In the present study, the expression levels of miR-3653-3p in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 150 patients with high-risk ovarian cancer were determined, including those with a family history of cancer or an early-age diagnosis of ovarian cancer, as well as 100 healthy individuals. The results were then compared between the two groups. The expression level of miR-3653-3p in the PBMCs of patients with ovarian cancer was determined to be 9.49-fold higher than that in the healthy control group, and this result was statistically significant (P < 0.001). In addition, receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis of PBMC showed statistical significance of miR-3653-3p in discriminating ovarian cancer patients from healthy subjects (P < 0.001). These results suggest that miR-3653-3p detected in peripheral blood may be used as a non-invasive biomarker for ovarian cancer.
