Immunohistochemical expression of cell-cycle regulators in pediatric embryonal brain tumors.

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.
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
Embryonal tumors constitute the most common malignant brain tumor group in children. Experimental results indicate that genes involved in cell cycle and signal transduction are deregulated in medulloblastoma (MB) and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (AT/RT). The cell cycle is regulated by protein complexes composed of a regulatory subunit called Cyclin and a catalytic domain named Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK). Cyclins and CDKs are in turn regulated by cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKI) which inhibit cell-cycle progression. Cyclins D and Cyclin E are important for the passage of cells through G1 to S phase. P-27, a member of the universal CDKI family, is important in regulating the G1/S transition. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of p-27, Cyclin D3, and Cyclin E, and their possible prognostic significance in pediatric embryonal brain tumors. We retrospectively evaluated 51 children with embryonal tumors that were treated surgically in our institute. All patients had regular follow up examinations. The streptavidin-biotin HRP method was performed on paraffin sections for detection of p-27, Cyclin D3, and Cyclin E. There were 42 cases of MB and nine cases of AT/RT. Cyclin D3 expression was detected in 11/42 MB and 3/9 AT/RT patients. Cyclin E expression was detected in 28/42 MB and 8/9 AT/RT patients. High expression of Ki-67 (>50 %) and p-27 (>50 %) was observed in 23.8-73.8 % of MB patients. Combined high Ki-67 and p-27 expression was observed in 21.4 % cases of MB. In these cases there was expression of Cyclin E in 88.8 % and Cyclin D3 in 22.2 % of MB. No significant correlation was found between Ki-67 and p-27, Cyclin D3, and E. No correlation was found between Cyclin D3, Cyclin E, p-27, and overall survival. Increased p-27 and Cyclin E expression was detected in a substantial number of MB patients and in nearly all AT/RT patients. Further studies on a larger number of patients are needed to clarify a possible correlation of p-27 and Cyclin E with tumor behavior.
