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

Liver cancer presents divergent clinical behaviors. There remain opportunities for molecular markers to improve liver cancer diagnosis and prognosis, especially since tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNA) have rarely been studied. In this study, a random forests (RF) diagnostic model was built based upon tsRNA profiling of paired tumor and adjacent normal samples and validated by independent validation (IV). A LASSO model was used to developed a seven-tsRNA-based risk score signature for liver cancer prognosis. Model performance was evaluated by a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) and Precision-Recall curve (PR curve). The five-tsRNA-based RF diagnosis model had area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) 88% and area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR) 87% in the discovery cohort and 87% and 86% in IV-AUROC and IV-AUPR, respectively. The seven-tsRNA-based prognostic model predicts the overall survival of liver cancer patients (Hazard Ratio 2.02, 95% CI 1.36-3.00,
