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

An autopsy case of biphasic malignant mesothelioma with osseous and cartilaginous differentiation diffusely involving the peritoneal cavity was confirmed by light microscopic histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and electron microscopy. A reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction using specific primers for bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) revealed weak positive transcript in normal mesothelial cells and up-regulated expression around bone-forming malignant mesothelioma tissue. However, BMP-2 protein expression was detected only in the marginal zone of bone trabeculae and spindle-shaped mesothelioma cells distributed around bone trabeculae in tumor tissue. The distribution of type IV collagen in tumor tissue was in accordance with the BMP-2 expression. Normal mesothelial cells and tumor cells expressed BMP-2 mRNA, but the BMP-2 protein expression was restricted to the bone-forming area in the malignant mesothelioma.
