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

purposeThere is an aberrant expression of NBAT-1 in various human cancers, which was proven to limit the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of tumour cells via multiple approaches. Most existing research focuses on sample size and discrete outcomes. Thus, a quantitative meta-analysis was performed to elucidate the prognostic value of lncRNA NBAT-1 expression in cancer patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsUsing Web of Science and PubMed, two researchers independently identified relevant studies to explore the association between the pathological features of human cancers and NBAT-1 expression levels. Then two scholars conducted literature screening according to exclusion criteria and admission criteria, and finally conducted statistical analysis through data extraction with StataSE 12.0.

resultsA total of 12 eligible studies with 1600 patients were included in the meta-analysis eventually. It is indicated that the low expression level of lncRNA NBAT-1 was closely related to distant metastasis [RR = 0.50, 95% CI (0.33, 0.76), and P = 0.00], deep tumour invasion [RR = 0.62, 95% CI (0.49,0.80), and P = 0.00], poor histological grade [RR = 0.68, 95% CI (0.57, 0.81), and P = 0.00], advanced TNM stage [RR = 0.66, 95% CI (0.55, 0.79), and P = 0.00], large tumour volume[RR = 0.72, 95% CI (0.55, 0.93), and P = 0.01], and lymph node metastasis [RR = 0.62, 95% CI (0.46, 0.84), and P = 0.00], suggesting that it may serve as biomarkers for patients with poor prognosis.

conclusionReduced expression of NBAT-1 can predict poor prognosis in several cancers, as found in the meta-analysis, demonstrating that NBAT-1 can serve as a promising prognostic factor of human cancers.
