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

Expression levels of p27(kip1) , a negative regulator of the G1 phase of the cell cycle, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage, were assessed by immunostaining in a series of renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) and their prognostic significance was evaluated. Expression of p27(kip1) as well as of the α-subunit of the dystroglycan (DG) complex, previously reported to be altered in RCC, was also evaluated by western blot analysis. Nuclear expression of p27(kip1) was reduced in a significant fraction of tumors and low p27(kip1) staining correlated with higher tumor grade (P < 0.01). Recurrence and death from clear cell RCCs were significantly more frequent in p27(kip1) -low expressing tumors and Kaplan-Meier curves showed a significant separation between high vs low expressor groups for both disease-free (P = 0.011) and overall (P = 0.002) survival. Low nuclear expression of p27(kip1) as well as loss of α-DG were confirmed to be independent prognostic parameters at a multivariate analysis and the simultaneous loss of both molecules defined a "high-risk" group of patients with increased risk of recurrence (RR = 28.7; P = 0.01) and death (RR = 12.9; P = 0.03). No significant correlation with clinical or pathological parameters was found for 8-OHdG staining. Western blot analyses suggested a post-translational mechanism for the loss of α-DG expression and demonstrated that cytoplasmic dislocation of the protein contributes to the loss of active nuclear p27(kip1) . Loss of nuclear p27(kip1) is a frequent event in human RCCs and is a powerful predictor of poor outcome which, in combination with low DG expression, could help to identify high-risk patients with clear cell RCC.
