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

Early diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is critical to improving the overall prognosis. However, biomarkers for early diagnosis are lacking. We used pre-diagnostic plasma samples from 1307 PDAC cases and individually matched cancer-free controls from five prospective cohort studies. Conditional logistic regression was used to assess the association of circulating miRNAs with PDAC risk. Linear regression was conducted to identify miRNAs ratio (miRNA levels of case over their matched control) change associated with the lead time from blood draw to PDAC diagnosis. We found 20 miRNAs significantly associated with PDAC risk (p
