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

backgroundGastric cancer is associated with high mortality, and effective methods for predicting prognosis are lacking. We aimed to identify potential prognostic markers associated with the development of gastric cancer through bioinformatic analyses.

methodsGastric cancer-associated gene expression profiles were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus databases. The key genes involved in the development of gastric cancer were obtained by differential expression analysis, coexpression analysis, and short time-series expression miner (STEM) analysis. The potential prognostic value of differentially expressed genes was further evaluated using a Cox regression model and risk scores. Hierarchical clustering was applied to validate the impact of key genes on the overall survival of gastric cancer patients.

resultsA total of 1381 genes were consistently dysregulated in the development of gastric cancer. Among them, 186 genes affected the overall survival of gastric cancer patients. The following genes had areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve greater than 0.9 in both datasets and were therefore considered key genes:

conclusionsWe found that key dysregulated genes may have a prognostic value for the development of gastric cancer.
