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

Molecular genetic evidence indicates that endometrial carcinoma likely develops as the result of a multistep process of oncogene activation and tumor suppressor gene inactivation. These molecular alterations appear to be specific for Type I (endometrioid) and Type II (non endometrioid) cancers. Type I cancers are characterized by mutation of PTEN, KRAS2, defects in DNA mismatch repair, as evidenced by the microsatellite instability phenotype, and a near diploid karyotype. Type II cancers often contain mutations of TP53 and Her-2/neu and are usually nondiploid. The clinical value of many of these molecular markers is now being tested and it may help to refine diagnosis and establish an accurate prognosis. Furthermore, some of these tumor biomarkers constitute the targets for emerging therapies. Transtuzumab against Her-2/neu and bevacizumab against VEGF overexpressing carcinomas are among the promising novel treatments. Additional translational research is needed to identify molecular and genetic alterations with potential for therapeutic interventions.
