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

aimsTo clarify p21(waf1/cip1) expression in sinonasal lesions.

methodsArchived surgical specimens from 38 patients were investigated by means of immunohistochemistry. p21(waf1/cip1) staining was evaluated in the different layers of the epithelium. In addition, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and p53 protein overexpression were assessed and correlated with p21(waf1/cip1) expression.

resultsp21(waf1/cip1) staining was negative in non-papillomatous nasal mucosa. HPV infection and p53 protein overexpression were not seen. Sixteen of 20 inverted papillomas showed p21(waf1/cip1) expression. HPV infection was found in 16 cases and p53 protein overexpression was present in 13 specimens. Expression of p21(waf1/cip1) was restricted to surface cells in five cases, but involved basal/parabasal cells in 11 specimens. Immunoreactivity for p21(waf1/cip1) in basal/parabasal cells colocalised with p53 protein overexpression. Enhanced expression rates for p21(waf1/cip1) were seen in transitional and squamous epithelium compared with columnar epithelium. p21(waf1/cip1) expression involved only surface cells in cylindrical cell papillomas. HPV infection and p53 protein overexpression were detected in all specimens. One of five squamous cell carcinomas showed p21(waf1/cip1) expression. HPV infection was seen in two cases, and all carcinomas showed p53 protein overexpression.

conclusionsExpression of p21(waf1/cip1) is associated with terminal differentiation in surface cells in inverted papillomas and cylindrical cell papillomas, but not in non-papillomatous nasal mucosa. Overexpression of p53 protein colocalises with p21(waf1/cip1) expression in basal/parabasal cells in inverted papillomas but not in cylindrical cell papillomas. Expression of p21(waf1/cip1) in squamous cell carcinomas involves a subset of tumours with p53 protein overexpression.
