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

objectiveGastric cancer (GC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors in Asian countries. Studies have proposed that lncRNAs can be used as diagnostic and prognostic indicators of GC due to the high specificity of lncRNAs expression involvement in GC. Recently, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) has also emerged as an important modulator of the expression of lncRNAs in GC. This study aimed at establishing a novel m6A-related lncRNAs prognostic signature that can be used to construct accurate models for predicting the prognosis of GC in the Asian population.

methodsFirst, the levels of m6A modification and m6A methyltransferases expression in GC samples were determined using dot blot and western blot analyses. Next, we evaluated the lncRNAs expression profiles and the corresponding clinical data of 88 Asian GC patients retrieved from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Differential expression of m6A-related lncRNAs between GC and normal tissues was investigated. The relationship between these target lncRNAs and potential immunotherapeutic signatures was also analyzed. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to identify the malignancy-associated pathways. Univariate Cox regression, LASSO regression, and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to establish a novel prognostic m6A-related lncRNAs prognostic signature. Moreover, we constructed a predictive nomogram and determined the expression levels of nine m6A-related lncRNAs in 12 pairs of clinical samples.

resultsWe found that m6A methylation levels were significantly increased in GC tumor samples compared to adjacent normal tissues, and the increase was positively correlated with tumor stage. Patients were then divided into two clusters (cluster 1 and cluster 2) based on the differential expression of the m6A-related lncRNAs. Results showed that there was a significant difference in survival probability between the two clusters (p = 0.018). Notably, the low survival rate in cluster 2 may be associated with high expression of immune cells (resting memory CD4

conclusionsThe risk model described here, based on the six m6A-related lncRNAs signature, and may predict the clinical prognoses and immunotherapeutic response in Asian GC patients.
