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

Recent studies have revealed that flotillin-1 (FLOT1) plays important roles in cancer progression. However, the role of FLOT1 in development and progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains largely unknown. The objective of the current study was to investigate the expression pattern and clinicopathological significance of FLOT1 in patients with NSCLC. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was applied to examine FLOT1 mRNA expression in 52 pairs of NSCLC tissues and adjacent noncancerous tissues. Immunohistochemistry was performed to examine FLOT1 protein expression in paraffin-embedded tissues from 106 NSCLC patients. Statistical analyses were applied to evaluate the diagnostic value and associations of FLOT1 expression with clinicopathological characteristics. FLOT1 mRNA expression was evidently upregulated in NSCLC tissues compared with that in the adjacent noncancerous tissues. In the 106 cases of tested NSCLC samples, FLOT1 protein level was positively correlated with tumor size, tumor stage, and lymph node metastasis. Patients with higher FLOT1 expression had shorter overall survival time, whereas those with lower FLOT1 expression had longer survival time. Taken together, our findings indicate that FLOT1 may play an important role in NSCLC tumorigenesis. Further elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying the role of FLOT1 is warranted.
