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

Metastasis associated in colon cancer 1 (MACC1) has been regarded as a novel potential therapeutic target for multiple cancers. However, the impact of MACC1 in glioma remains unclear. The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation of MACC1 expression with the clinicopathological features of glioma. MACC1 mRNA and protein expression levels in human glioma tissues were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry assays, respectively. MACC1 mRNA and protein expression were both significantly higher in glioma tissues than in corresponding noncancerous brain tissues (both P < 0.001). In addition, statistical analysis suggested that high MACC1 expression was significantly correlated with advanced pathological grade (P = 0.004) and that patients with high expression of MACC1 protein exhibited a poorer prognosis than those with low MACC1 expression. Furthermore, Cox multivariate analysis showed that MACC1 overexpression was an independent prognostic factor for predicting the overall survival of glioma patients. In conclusion, expression of MACC1 in glioma could be adopted as a candidate biomarker for the diagnosis of clinical stage and for assessing prognosis, indicating for the first time that MACC1 may play an important role in the tumor development and progression in glioma. MACC1 might be considered as a novel therapeutic target against this cancer.
