Long non-coding RNAs as prognostic biomarkers in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: A systematic review.

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.
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
Traditional prognostic tools for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) often overestimate progression and recurrence risks, underscoring the need for more precise biomarkers. While long non-coding ribonucleic acids (lncRNAs) have been reviewed in bladder cancer, no review has focused on NMIBC. The aim of this study was to address this gap by investigating the role of lncRNAs in predicting NMIBC survival and progression. A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane databases as of July 31, 2024. Prognostic studies investigating the association between lncRNA expression and survival outcomes, such as cancer-specific survival, disease-free survival, recurrence-free survival, or overall survival, using Kaplan-Meier curves or hazard ratios, were included. A total of three studies were analyzed, involving 279 NMIBC patients and focusing on three lncRNAs: urothelial cancer associated 1 (UCA1), growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5), and up-regulated in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (UNMIBC). Increased UCA1 expression was strongly associated with poor disease-free survival (hazard ratio (HR): 1.974; 95%CI: 1.061-3.673;
