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

backgroundSurgical impact may be associated with enhanced tumor growth and chemoresistance. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of surgical impact on the mRNA expression of survivin, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and human epidermal receptor (HER2) in tumors after pneumoperitoneum versus laparotomy.

methodsNude mice were inoculated intraperitoneally with human gastric cancer cells (MKN45). Then laparotomy, carbon dioxide (CO(2)) pneumoperitoneum, and anesthesia alone were performed randomly, after which EGFR, HER2, and survivin mRNA expression using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was evaluated.

resultsThe expression of EGFR and HER2 mRNA increased significantly after the experiment. However, it was higher after laparotomy than after CO(2) pneumoperitoneum at almost all examined time points. Survivin mRNA expression increased significantly in the first 48 h, then returned to the control level. It was higher after laparotomy than after CO(2) pneumoperitoneum 48 h after the surgical procedures.

conclusionThe expression of EGFR, HER2, and survivin increased after each surgical procedure. However it was lower after CO(2) pneumoperitoneum than after laparotomy. This might be associated with changes in the chemosensitivity of the remnant cancer cells after surgery, supporting the use of minimally invasive surgery for cancer.
