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

Mouse monoclonal antibodies PAb 240 and PAb 1801 which specifically immunoprecipitate p53 protein, were used to examine 27 fresh ovarian tumours (16 serous adenocarcinomas, six endometrioid carcinomas, one mucinous adenocarcinoma, one mucinous borderline tumour and three benign adenomas). Eleven out of 16 (69%) serous adenocarcinomas and one endometrioid tumour showed positive staining with one or both antibodies and none of the mucinous or benign tumours stained with either antibody. DNA from tumour and peripheral blood leukocytes was used to identify allelic deletions on chromosome 17p in tumours. 11/12 positively staining tumours showed less of heterozygosity (LOH) on 17p at the nearest informative locus to the p53 gene. In this series of ovarian tumours, LOH on 17p correlates closely with the aberrant expression of the p53 protein in a high proportion of advanced stage serous adenocarcinomas. This observation suggests that the p53 tumour suppressor gene is involved in the evolution of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and may have prognostic significance.
