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

purposeAs inactivation of p53 may be correlated with poor response of tumors to chemo- and/or radiotherapy the presence of p53 mutations in exons 5-8 was determined in adenocarcinomas of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). As p53 protein phosphorylation at serine 15 indicates stabilization and protection against mdm-2 the presence of this phosphorylation state was subsequently evaluated.

methodsMutations in exons 5-8 were analyzed by denaturing high pressure liquid chromatography (DHPLC) and subsequent sequence analysis in pretherapeutic biopsies of 38 adenocarcinomas of the GEJ that had undergone multimodal treatment in the course of a prospective multicentric phase III trial. The presence of p53 protein phosphorylation at serine 15 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.

resultsMutations in the DNA binding region were found in 23 samples and were only weakly associated with worse 2-year survival (P=0.083). Phosphorylation at serine 15 of p53 was detected in 14 samples, being neither associated with p53 mutation nor with patient's survival.

conclusionThis allows the conclusion that the determination of these two parameters does not help to select patients who do profit from multimodal treatment for adenocarcinomas of the GEJ.
