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

Altered CD24, c-myc and phospholipase 2a expression was reported in different cancers. Our aim was to measure the expression of these genes in prostate cancer tissues, and compare it to non-cancerous samples. Prostate tissue samples were collected by needle biopsy from 20 prostate cancer (PCA) and 11 benign prostate hyperplasic (BPH) patients. RNA was isolated; cDNA synthetized, CD24, c-myc and phospholipase 2A (PL2A) expressions were determined by quantitative real-time PCR method. The expression of beta-globin gene was measured for normalization of the gene expression results. Serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels were determined by microparticle enzyme immunoassay (MEIA) method. PSA levels were significantly different between the PCA and BPH groups, 252.37 +/- 308.33 ng/ml vs. 3.5 +/- 2.14 ng/ml (p = 0.001), respectively. CD24 expression was 988.86 +/- 3041 ng/microl in prostate tumor and 4.00 +/- 4.25 ng/microl in the BPH group (p = 0.035). The c-myc expression was 88.32 +/- 11.93 ng/microl in the prostate tumor and 17.08 +/- 21.75 ng/microl in the BPH group (p = 0.02), and the PL2A 31.36 +/- 67.02 ng/microl was in PCA and 5.56 +/- 14.08 ng/microl in BPH (p = 0.025). Gleason's scores showed correlation with c-myc (p = 0.019) and PSA (p = 0.033) levels. Overexpression of PL2A, CD24 and c-myc was observed in prostate cancer samples using quantitative real-time PCR method.
