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

Myopodin is a dual compartment protein that displays actin-bundling activity and redistributes between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in a differentiation-dependent and stress-induced fashion. We evaluated myopodin expression in initiation and progression of bladder cancer. Normal urothelium expresses myopodin in the cytoplasm and nuclei. Invasive bladder tumors showed decreased nuclear myopodin expression as compared to superficial lesions. This loss of nuclear myopodin expression was significantly associated with histopathological stage, tumor grade and overall patient survival in bladder tumors contained in tissue microarrays. We identified a differential nuclear expression for myopodin among bladder cancer cell lines during cell-cycle. Myopodin was present in the nucleus during G1/S in cells derived from superficial and low-grade lesions but not in those derived from invasive tumors. Loss of nuclear myopodin expression could classify bladder tumors and bladder cancer cell lines based on their histopathology. Most importantly, patients with preserved nuclear myopodin expression showed a longer survival. Nuclear myopodin expression in the context of cell-cycle progression may prove useful for staging bladder tumors and suggest a tumor suppressor role of myopodin in bladder cancer.
