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

Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world; almost two-thirds of gastric cancer cases and deaths occur in less developed regions. The molecular and cellular events during development of gastric cancer remain unclear. Herein, we examined the expression of ER-alpha36, an ER-alpha variant, in established gastric cancer cell lines and specimens from 22 gastric cancer patients. RT-PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry methods were used to assess expression levels of ER-alpha36. ER-alpha36 localization in gastric cancer cells was determined with an immunofluorenscence assay. Both mRNA and protein of ER-alpha36 were detected in all established gastric cancer cell lines examined. Higher levels of ER-alpha36 mRNA were expressed in 17 of 22 (77.27%) tumor specimens examined compared to the paired normal tissues (p<0.05). ER-alpha36 protein was expressed mainly on the plasma membrane and in the cytoplasm of the established gastric cancer cells. ER-alpha36 expression is highly correlated with lymph node metastasis in human gastric cancer (P<0.05). The estrogen receptor variant ER-alpha36 is highly expressed in human gastric cancer. ER-alpha36 expression may be used as a predictive marker for lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer.
