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

aimThe purpose of this study was to investigate the co-expression of survivin, c-erbB2, and COX-2 in endometrial cancer tissues and evaluate its prognostic significance in endometrial cancer

methodsTumor tissue biopsies from 110 patients with primary untreated endometrial carcinomas were studied by immunohistochemistry. Statistical analysis evaluated correlation of antigen expression with tumor stage, grade, myometrial invasion, and histologic type. Association with disease outcome was also investigated

resultsThe results showed that expression of the three antigens was independently associated with histological grade, disease stage, and myometrial invasion. Clinicopathological parameters were also associated with the number of antigens expressed by each tumor, the expression of more antigens correlating with advanced stage disease and deep myometrial invasion. In a 10-year follow-up, patients with tumors expressing more of these three antigens had significantly lower survival rate that those with smaller expression score

conclusionsOur results indicate that the co-expression score has independent prognostic value for endometrial cancer.
