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

backgroundHomologous recombination plays a vital role in the occurrence and drug resistance of gastric cancer. This study aimed to screen new gastric cancer diagnostic biomarkers in the homologous recombination pathway and then used radiomic features to construct a prediction model of biomarker expression to guide the selection of chemotherapy regimens.

methodsGastric cancer transcriptome data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Machine learning methods were used to screen for diagnostic biomarkers of gastric cancer and validate them experimentally. Computed Tomography image data of gastric cancer patients and corresponding clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Imaging Archive and our imaging centre, and then the Computed Tomography images were subjected to feature extraction, and biomarker expression prediction models were constructed to analyze the correlation between the biomarker radiomics scores and clinicopathological features.

resultsWe screened RAD51D and XRCC2 in the homologous recombination pathway as biomarkers for gastric cancer diagnosis by machine learning, and the expression of RAD51D and XRCC2 was significantly positively correlated with pathological T stage, N stage, and TNM stage. Homologous recombination pathway blockade inhibits gastric cancer cell proliferation, promotes apoptosis, and reduces the sensitivity of gastric cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. Our predictive RAD51D and XRCC2 expression models were constructed using radiomics features, and all the models had high accuracy. In the external validation cohort, the predictive models still had decent accuracy. Moreover, the radiomics scores of RAD51D and XRCC2 were also significantly positively correlated with the pathologic T, N, and TNM stages.

conclusionsThe gastric cancer diagnostic biomarkers RAD51D and XRCC2 that we screened can, to a certain extent, reflect the expression status of genes through radiomic characteristics, which is of certain significance in guiding the selection of chemotherapy regimens for gastric cancer patients.
