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

Laryngeal precursor lesions represent areas of altered epithelium with an increased likelihood for progression to squamous cell carcinoma. The exact molecular mechanisms of malignant transformation of laryngeal mucosa are not completely clear, but are certainly due to deregulation of cell proliferation. To assess the potential value of the p16 and Ki-67 as markers of malignant progression, we undertook a retrospective immunohistochemical and morphometric analysis on biopsy specimens from patients with precancerous lesions in the larynx. Morphometric analysis of samples stained with p16 antibody showed epithelial cell positivity in 29 (100 %) of samples with simple hyperplasia, 31 (100 %) samples with basal/parabasal cell hyperplasia, 23 (88 %) samples with atypical hyperplasia and 20 (95 %) samples with in situ carcinoma. There was a significant difference in percentage of p16-positive cells between samples with simple hyperplasia and samples with in situ carcinoma. Morphometric analysis of samples stained with Ki-67 antibody showed epithelial cell positivity in 27 (93 %) of samples with simple hyperplasia, 30 (97 %) samples with basal/parabasal cell hyperplasia, 26 (100 %) samples with atypical hyperplasia and 18 (86 %) samples with in situ carcinoma. There was a significant difference not only in the percentage of Ki-67-positive cells between samples with simple hyperplasia and samples with in situ carcinoma, but also between samples with simple and basal/parabasal cell hyperplasia. Laryngeal epithelial precursor lesions show significantly opposite patterns in p16 and Ki-67 immunopositivity. Simple hyperplasia on average shows 12 % of Ki-67-positive cells and 46 % of p16-positive cells. In situ carcinoma on average shows 23 % of Ki-67-positive cells and 36 % of p16-positive cells.
