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

P53-induced gene 11 (PIG11) is an early transcription-related target of p53 that is involved in cell apoptosis and tumor development. However, its biological function in gastric cancer (GC) tissues and relationship with the prognosis of patients with GC have remained elusive. In the present retrospective study, 60 fresh and 790 paraffin-embedded samples of GC were obtained from the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University (Nantong, China) with complete clinical data from all patients. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and tissue microarray-immunohistochemical analysis were used to determine the expression of PIG11 in the respective GC tissues. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to determine the diagnostic utility of PIG11 expression in GC. Furthermore, three online databases, including Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA), Oncomine and Kaplan-Meier plotter, were used for bioinformatics analysis of PIG11. PIG11 expression in GC tissues was high, which was positively correlated with invasive depth (P<0.001), lymph node metastasis (P<0.001), distant metastasis (P=0.019), TNM staging (P<0.001) and carcinoembryonic antigen in serum (P<0.001), and negatively associated with the overall survival of patients with GC. The ROC curve analysis suggested that based on PIG11 expression, it was possible to distinguish GC tissues from adjacent normal tissues (P<0.0001) with a sensitivity and specificity of 81.67 and 76.67%, respectively. In addition, Cox logistic regression analysis demonstrated that high PIG11 expression is a novel biomarker for unfavorable prognosis of patients with GC. Furthermore, the results obtained from the GEPIA database indicated that PIG11 expression is correlated with TNF, carcinoembryonic antigen related cell adhesion molecule 5, phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha, VEGFA and kinase insert domain receptor. Therefore, PIG11 expression may be associated with the malignancy of GC and may serve as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for GC.
