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

objectiveTo explore the hypermethylated long non-coding (lnc)RNAs involved in bladder carcinogenesis and prognosis.

methodsReduced representation bisulfite sequencing and RNA sequencing were performed on five paired tumor and adjacent normal tissue samples from bladder cancer patients. The differentially methylated regions around transcription start sites and differentially expressed genes, including lncRNAs, were analyzed. Correlations between DNA methylation modifications and the expression of lncRNAs were examined. Survival analysis was surveyed on the GEPIA web server.

resultsWe identified 19,560 hypomethylated and 68,781 hypermethylated differentially methylated regions around transcription start sites in bladder cancer tissues. In total, 2321 differentially expressed genes were found in bladder tumors, among which, 367 were upregulated and 1954 were downregulated. There were 141 downregulated genes involving eight lncRNAs that were consistently hypermethylated, while 24 upregulated genes were consistently hypomethylated. Survival analysis demonstrated that hypermethylation of lncRNAs LINC00683 and MSC-AS1 were associated with poor overall survival in bladder cancer patients.

conclusionSome lncRNAs are controlled by DNA methylation in bladder cancer and they might be important factors in bladder carcinogenesis. Hypermethylated lncRNAs including LINC00683 and MSC-AS1 have the potential to be prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer.
