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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveIn recent years, many studies have revealed the prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In general, some clinic-pathological parameters have been related with prognosis. The aim of this study is to detect the relationship among lymphatic vessel density (LVD), microvessel density (MVD), expression of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA, metastasis suppressor genes (KAI1 and Kiss-1), and the prognosis of NSCLC patients.

methodsBlood samples were collected from 57 cases of NSCLC. The transcription of CEA mRNA was detected via nested reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and micro-fluid chip. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expression of LVD, MVD, KAI1 and Kiss-1 in the patients. All follow-up data were collected and analyzed.

resultsThe overall five-year survival rate was 18%, and the median survival was 34 months. TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and expression of MVD, LVD, CEA mRNA and Kiss-1 were factors to survival, as determined via single survival analysis. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and expression of CEA mRNA were independent prognostic factors for NSCLC patients.

conclusionsThe expression of MVD, LVD, Kiss-1 and CEA mRNA is related to the prognosis of NSCLC.
