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

The microsatellite stable/epithelial-mesenchymal transition (MSS/EMT) subtype of gastric cancer represents a highly aggressive class of tumors associated with low rates of survival and considerably high probabilities of recurrence. In the era of precision medicine, the accurate and prompt diagnosis of tumors of this subtype is of vital importance. In this study, we used Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify a differentially expressed co-expression module of mRNAs in EMT-type gastric tumors. Using network analysis and linear discriminant analysis, we identified mRNA motifs and microRNA-based models with strong prognostic and diagnostic relevance: three models comprised of (i) the microRNAs miR-199a-5p and miR-141-3p, (ii) EVC/EVC2/GLI3, and (iii) PDE2A/GUCY1A1/GUCY1B1 gene expression profiles distinguish EMT-type tumors from other gastric tumors with high accuracy (Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC) = 0.995, AUC = 0.9742, and AUC = 0.9717; respectively). Additionally, the DMD/ITGA1/CAV1 motif was identified as the top motif with consistent relevance to prognosis (hazard ratio > 3). Molecular functions of the members of the identified models highlight the central roles of MAPK, Hh, and cGMP/cAMP signaling in the pathology of the EMT subtype of gastric cancer and underscore their potential utility in precision therapeutic approaches.
