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

purposeCRABP1 is a modulator of retinoic acid function. The aim of the present study was to investigate CRABP1 expression and its clinical significance in ovarian carcinoma.

methodsExpression of CRABP1 protein was investigated by immunohistochemical analysis in 100 ovarian carcinomas of various histological sub-types, including serous and clear cell adenocarcinomas. Relationship of CRABP1 expression to clinical features, including prognosis, was analyzed.

resultsReduced expression of CRABP1 protein was detected especially frequently in the serous and clear cell adenocarcinomas sub-types, 50% (20 of 40) and 38% (10 of 26) of cases, respectively. We found that in both serous and clear cell adenocarcinomas overall survival was significantly poorer in the cases with reduced CRABP1 expression compared to similar cases where expression was maintained, irrespective of the disease stage (P = 0.0073 and 0.049, respectively). Disease-free survival of the serous and clear cell adenocarcinoma cases with reduced CRABP1 expression was significantly poorer, compared to the cases whose CRABP1 expression was maintained (P = 0.024). Multivariate analysis showed that reduced expression of CRABP1 was a significantly important prognostic factor (adjusted hazard ratio: 8.189 (95% CI, 2.186-30.672, P = 0.0019)).

conclusionsThe present study is the first to demonstrate that the reduced expression of CRABP1 has a potential as a prognostic marker for serous adenocarcinoma which is the most frequent histological ovarian tumor type and also for clear cell carcinoma that often exhibits chemo-resistance. Further study is necessary to clarify how CRABP1 protein expression was altered and how CRABP1 affects ovarian carcinoma cells.
