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

Skin squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a subtype of very aggressive skin cancers. To investigate if epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process for epitheloid cells losing their polarity and cohesiveness and transform into spindle-shaped cells, occurs in skin SCC. By using immunofluorescence, we defined the immunolocalization of vimentin, Keratin 17, β-catenin, E-cadherin, Ki-67 and involucrin, in SCC samples. Our results show reduced activity of involucrin and E-cadherin, and increased expression of Ki-67, β-catenin, Keratin 17 and vimentin in SCC. These data propose that EMT really occurs in poorly differentiated SCC and keratin 17 and involucrin may be another two biomarkers for EMT.
