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

purposeThis project explored the influence of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and microsatellite instability (MSI) of locus D8S277 to PINX1 expression of gastric cancer in Chinese people.

methodsLOH and MSI of locus D8S277 in 90 paraffin-embedded gastric carcinoma specimens were detected by polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP). Envision immunohistochemistry was used to assess the expression of PINX1.

resultsThe frequency of LOH was higher in cases with lymph node metastasis than those without (18.57 vs. 0.00%, P < 0.01), and was higher in the specimens that were at TNM stage III + IV than those at stage I + II (21.43 vs. 2.94%, P < 0.01). In terms of the frequency of MSI, it was lower in cases with lymph node metastasis than those without (10.00 vs. 30.00%,P < 0.05). The positive rate of PINX1 protein was higher in samples without lymph node metastasis than those with lymph node metastasis (80.00 vs. 50.00%, P < 0.01); and was higher in the cases at TNM stage I + II than those at stage III + IV; and was lower in the cases between 40 and 60 years old than those above 60 years old (43.75 vs. 65.52%, P < 0.05).

conclusionLOH and MSI of PINX1 may play major role in tumor development and regulate it through different pathways. Because LOH plays a major role in negative expression of PINX1, it can be regarded as a sign of gastric cancer development and MSI may affect the prognosis and tumor turnover.
