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

A disintegrin and metalloproteinase-17 (ADAM17, also named as tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme) is a member of the ADAM family. Of all ADAMs, the strongest evidence for a role in malignancy exists for ADAM17. Especially, it has been demonstrated that ADAM17 expression was significantly increased in human gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between ADAM17 expression and the clinicopathological features of patients with gastric cancer. The expression of ADAM17 was detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR in gastric cancer and adjacent non-cancerous tissues. In addition, ADAM17 expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry in 220 clinicopathologically characterized gastric cancer cases. The expression levels of ADAM17 mRNA and protein in gastric cancer tissues were both significantly higher than those in non-cancerous gastric mucosa. In addition, positive expression of ADAM17 correlated with the degree of tumor differentiation, depth of invasion, lymph node metastases, distant metastases, and TNM stage (all P<0.05). Furthermore, multivariate analysis suggested that lymph node metastases, distant metastases, TNM stage, and ADAM17 expression were independent prognostic indicators for gastric cancer. Our data suggest for the first time that the increased expression of ADAM17 in gastric cancer is associated significantly with aggressive progression and poor prognosis. ADAM17 may be an important molecular marker for predicting the carcinogenesis, progression, and prognosis of gastric cancer.
