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

c-fos was first identified as a viral oncoprotein, and has been studied in terms of its oncogenic function in tumorigenesis. Many experimental and clinical data indicated that c-fos expression plays a role in the progression of several types of carcinomas. However, some recent studies challenge this view as they indicate that c-fos has tumor suppressor activity. In the present study, we assessed c-fos protein expression in 625 consecutive gastric cancers immunohistochemically, and analyzed its relationship with clinicopathologic factors and survival. We found that a loss of c-fos expression is correlated with a more advanced stage, lymph node metastasis, lymphatic invasion and shorter survival, indicating that c-fos expression in gastric cancer cells is lost during progression and that this loss is associated with a poor prognosis. The above findings suggest that loss of c-fos expression has tumor suppressor activity in gastric cancer and we suspect that this suppressor activity might be related to the pro-apoptotic function of c-fos.
