Different CXCR4 expression according to various histologic subtype of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

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
Functional chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) is well known to be over-expressed in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). The aim of this study was to evaluate whether or not the expression of CXCR4 is different by histological subtypes of PTC and to elucidate the relationship between the expression of CXCR4 and clinicopathologic factors. CXCR4 expression in 127 PTC samples was assessed using immunohistochemical staining. The expression of CXCR4 showed different patterns according to the histological subtype of PTC (p < 0.001). A strong expression of CXCR4 was observed more frequently in the poorly differentiated region of PTC (81.0 %) than in classical PTC (50.0 %). Strong CXCR4 expression was less frequently shown in follicular variant (33.9 %) and in diffuse sclerosing variant (14.3 %) of PTC. CXCR4 expression showed a distinct pattern according to the histological subtype of PTC although not associated with other clinicopathological parameters.
