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 significant mortality rate associated with metastatic melanoma, which exceeds the number of deaths attributed to the primary tumor, is primarily due to poor diagnosis and increased resistance to systemic therapy. Early detection and treatment of invasive melanoma are therefore crucial to increase survival rates. Low molecular weight proteins and peptides have garnered significant interest as biomarker candidates as they potentially represent a snap shot of pathological condition within the body and, by extension, the organism as a whole. We have developed a nanoporous silica-based platform to segregate the low molecular weight from the high molecular weight protein fraction to aid in the detection of peptides from serum samples using mass spectrometry. The combination of sample treatment with our platform, MALDI-TOF MS and following biostatistical analysis led to the discovery and identification of 27 peptides that are potential biomarkers associated with the development of pulmonary metastatic melanoma. We strongly believe our findings can assist to discover stage-specific peptide signatures and lead to more specific and personalized treatments for patients suffering from pulmonary metastatic melanoma.
