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

backgroundA disintegrin and metallopeptidase with thrombospondin motif type 1 (ADAMTS1) is a recently discovered metalloproteinase with antiangiogenic activity. The function of ADAMTS1 in gastric cancer remains unknown. Therefore, we were interested in examining ADAMTS1 expression in human gastric cancer, as well as its possible correlation with angiogenesis.

methodsThe mRNA and protein expression of ADAMTS1, thrombospondin type I (TSP1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was evaluated by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry, respectively, in 56 paired tumor and normal tissue samples, and corresponding metastatic lymph nodes (n = 42). Microvessel density (MVD) was also evaluated by immunohistochemistry.

resultsADAMTS1 mRNA and protein levels were significantly lower in primary tumors than in corresponding normal tissues, and were significantly higher in metastatic lymph nodes compared to their matched primary tumors. High ADAMTS1 mRNA and protein expression was found to be significantly associated with lymph node metastasis in primary tumors. There was a negative correlation between ADAMTS1 and VEGF mRNA and protein expression in primary gastric tumors and normal tissues. A negative correlation was also found between ADAMTS1 protein expression and MVD in primary gastric tumors. In contrast, no correlation was detected between ADAMTS1 and TSP1 mRNA and protein expression in primary gastric tumors, normal tissues, and metastatic lymph nodes.

conclusionsThese findings suggest that ADAMTS1 expression is altered in primary gastric cancer and paired lymph node metastasis. In addition, ADAMTS1 has angioinhibitory effects in primary gastric cancer due to its low expression and negative correlation with VEGF and MVD. However, it appears to lose its anti-angiogenic activity in metastatic lymph nodes in gastric cancer.
