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

Human trophoblastic cell surface antigen 2 (Trop2) has been suggested to play an important role in the development of solid tumors. However, the expression of Trop2 in extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL) and the relationship with the clinical characteristics of this disease remain poorly understood. In this study, one-step quantitative PCR reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical staining with tissue sections were employed to evaluate the expression of Trop2 in ENKTL. Furthermore, the relationship between Trop2 expression and prognosis of ENKTL was investigated. Expression of Trop2 mRNA and protein was significantly higher in ENKTL tissue than in corresponding non-lymphomatous tissue (p = 0.04 and p < 0.001, respectively). Expression of Trop2 protein in ENKTL was associated with lymph node involvement and poor overall survival (p = 0.045 and p = 0.018, respectively). Kaplan-Meier analysis and the logrank test indicated that lymph node involvement (p = 0.0481), single therapy strategy (p = 0.0037), and high expression of Trop2 (p = 0.0042) are significantly correlated with poor prognosis of ENKTL patients. The data suggest that Trop2 expression reflects a more malignant phenotype and may serve as an unfavorable prognostic factor for ENKTL.
