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

backgroundCD147, encoded by the BSGgene, has complex transcripts that encode proteins of different lengths. Total BSG transcription is a prognostic biomarker for patients with liver cancer. This study tried to analyze the expression profile and prognostic significance of BSG transcripts in liver cancer. MATERIALS AND

methodsRNA sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project, survival data from TCGA, and protein expression data from the Human Protein Atlas were systematically analyzed.

resultsAmong the four protein-coding transcripts of BSG

conclusionsENST00000353555 might be a prognostic biomarker linking unfavorable overall survival in liver cancer patients.
