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

objectivesNeutral endopeptidase modulates the growth of lung cancer, while aminopeptidase N degrades the extracellular matrix and is involved in cell motility. We studied the metastasis mechanism to detect novel metastasis-associated molecules and to evaluate them for clinical application.

methodsWe studied the relationship between the expression of neutral endopeptidase and aminopeptidase N by quantitative reverse transcript-polymerase chain reaction analysis in 132 patients with non-small cell lung cancer undergoing radical surgery from 1991 to 1996.

resultsPatients with neutral endopeptidase-positive and aminopeptidase N-negative tumors were defined as group A, those with neutral endopeptidase-positive and aminopeptidase N-positive or neutral endopeptidase-negative and aminopeptidase N-negative tumors as group B, and those with neutral endopeptidase-negative and aminopeptidase N-positive tumors as group C. The 5-year survival of group A patients (92.9%) was significantly better than that of group B patients (64.7%) and much better than that of group C patients (38.2%) (P = 0.0011). Neutral endopeptidase and aminopeptidase N thus have statistically significant P in overall survival in Cox regression (P = 0.019).

conclusionNeutral endopeptidase and aminopeptidase N gene expressions are significant indicators of prognosis.
