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

Background: Cancer is widely recognized as a prominent contributor to global mortality due to factors such as delayed diagnosis, unfavorable prognosis, and high likelihood of recurrence. FGD5 transcription factor G antisense RNA 1(FGD5-AS1), a newly identified long non-coding RNA, has emerged as a promising prognostic biomarker, for malignancy prognosis. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the prognostic significance of FGD5-AS1 in various carcinomas. Methods: A systematic search was performed through five electronic databases to identify studies that investigating the role of FGD5-AS1 expression as a prognostic factor in carcinomas. The value of FGD5-AS1 in malignancies was estimated by odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) with a corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Furthermore, the GEPIA database was used to further supplement our results. Results: This analysis included 12 studies with 642 cases covering eight cancer types. High FGD5-AS1 expression exhibited a significant correlation with poor overall survival(OS) (HR = 2.04, 95%CI [1.72, 2.42], P < 0.00001), advanced tumor stage (OR = 3.47, 95%CI [2.34, 5.14], P < 0.00001), lymph node metastasis(LNM) (OR = 1.79, 95% CI [1.20,2.67], P = 0.004), and larger tumor size (OR= 5.25, 95%CI [2.68, 10.30], P < 0.00001). Furthermore, the FGD5-AS1 expression was notably upregulated in six types of malignancies as verified using the GEPIA online gene analysis tool. Conclusions: The findings of this meta-analysis indicated that high FGD5-AS1 expression was significantly associated with poor prognosis in diverse cancer types, suggesting that FGD5-AS1 may be a promising biomarker for predicting cancer prognosis.
