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

backgroundTo investigate the prognostic value of expression levels of nin one binding protein (Nob1) in prostate carcinoma.

methodsNob1 protein levels were evaluated by Western blot in samples from 40 prostate carcinomas and matched adjacent non-neoplastic prostate tissues. Nob1 expression was also assessed by immunohistochemistry in samples from 300 prostate carcinoma and matched adjacent non-neoplastic prostate tissues, as well as 20 benign prostatic hyperplasia samples. The findings were compared with clinical and pathologic parameters and patient outcome.

resultsNob1 protein analysis showed significant differences between the prostate carcinomas and control groups tested. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that Nob1 positivity was higher in prostate carcinoma than that in paired adjacent non-cancerous tissues (58 vs 7 %, P < 0.001). Nob1 positivity was significantly associated with high Gleason scores and metastasis in patients. Nob1 expression was significantly associated with shorter biochemical recurrence-free survival (BCRFS). Multivariate analysis revealed that Nob1 is an independent marker for BCRFS.

conclusionsThese findings provide evidence that Nob1 is an indicator of poor prognosis in prostate carcinoma.
