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

The purpose of this study was to screen serum samples from gastric carcinoma patients and to determine whether serum amyloid A protein (SAA) served as a biomarker. SELDI technology was used to screen for changes in SAA levels in the serum samples. A mass cluster with a mass/charge (m/z) value between 11.1 and 11.9 kDa was identified in the serum samples from gastric carcinoma patients which was much higher than that of the control group. Furthermore, the increase in this m/z peak correlated with the severity of the cancer. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis confirmed that the peak was SAA1. In conclusion, this increase in SAA may be used as a potential biomarker for gastric cancer.
