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 (OC) is the most malignant tumor in the female reproductive tract. Although abundant molecular biomarkers have been identified, a robust and accurate gene expression signature is still essential to assist oncologists in evaluating the prognosis of OC patients. In this study, samples from 367 patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database were subjected to mRNA expression profiling. Then, we used a gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to screen genes correlated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and assess their prognostic power with a Cox proportional regression model. Six genes (TGFBI, SFRP1, COL16A1, THY1, PPIB, BGN) associated with overall survival (OS) were used to construct a risk assessment model, after which the patients were divided into high-risk and low-risk groups. The six-gene signature was an independent prognostic biomarker of OS for OC patients based on the multivariate Cox regression analysis. In addition, the six-gene model was validated with samples from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. In summary, we established a six-gene signature relevant to the prognosis of OC, which might become a therapeutic tool with clinical applications in the future.
