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

purposeThe human gene PTPN11, which encodes the non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase of Src homology phosphotyrosine phosphatase 2 (Shp2), has been previously well interpreted as a proto-oncogene in a variety of malignancies. However, the tumor suppressor role of Shp2 has also been reported. The present study was conducted to investigate the role of Shp2 expression and its associated clinical manifestations in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

methodsA tissue microarray of 333 pairs of HCC and self-matched adjacent non-tumor tissues was constructed, and the expression of Shp2 was determined by immunohistochemistry. The results were also conformed by Western blotting and quantitative PCR of 31 self-paired fresh HCC specimens. The associations of Shp2 expression with 25 clinicopathologic features were analyzed. Overall survival analysis and multivariate analysis were performed.

resultsSignificantly decreased Shp2 expression in tumor tissues (T) compared with adjacent non-tumor tissues (NT) could be detected, and the positive rate was 66.1 and 96.7%, respectively. We combined the T and NT Shp2 immunoreactivity by a variable of the decrease in Shp2 expression (ΔShp2) and divided cases into 2 groups: T < NT and T ≥ NT. Survival analysis showed both low Shp2 expression and T < NT group were significantly associated with short overall survival. Multivariate analysis showed ΔShp2 was an independent prognostic marker (P = 0.033; HR: 0.527; 95% CI: 0.293-0.950).

conclusionShp2 is a tumor suppressor, and the decrease in Shp2 expression was a new prognostic marker in HCC. The oncogenic role of Shp2 was tissue specific, and the therapeutic target of human gene PTPN11 should be reconsidered.
