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

aimsThis study was conducted to analyze the clinical significance of ASAP1 in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).

methodsA total of 95 patients with EOC were included in the study. The expression profile of ASAP1 in 10 pairs of ovarian cancer and normal ovary tissues were detected by Real-time PCR. The expression level of ASAP1 in 95 paraffin-embedded EOC specimens was measured by immunohistochemistry staining. Statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the clinicopathologic significance of ASAP1.

resultsLevels of ASAP1 mRNA were higher in EOC than in normal ovary tissues. Patients with higher ASAP1 expression had shorter overall (P=0.019) and recurrence-free (P=0.030) survival time, whereas those with lower ASAP1 expression survived longer. In addition, high expression of ASAP1 was correlated with poor overall (P=0.044) and recurrence-free (P=0.006) survival in patients with advanced carcinomas. Moreover, statistical analysis displayed a significant correlation in ASAP1 expression with pelvic metastasis (P=0.015). Multivariate analysis revealed that an elevated ASAP1 expression was a significant independent prognostic factor for the overall (P=0.039) and recurrence-free (P=0.028) survival of EOC patients.

conclusionThese results indicated that elevated expression of ASAP1 plays an important role in the progression and metastasis of ovarian cancer, and that ASAP1 may be used as a biomarker in predicting patient outcome in EOC patients.
