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

Owing to the loss of heterochromatin integrity that occurs during thyroid tumorigenesis, the expression of Heterochromatin Protein 1 isoforms HP1α and HP1β was assessed by immunohistochemistry in 189 thyroid tumors and non-neoplastic tissues. Expression of HP1β was significantly decreased in all thyroid lesions, except in follicular adenomas, when compared with matched adjacent normal tissue. This loss of HP1β expression may in part be caused by microRNA dysregulation. An example is miR-205, a microRNA that is abundantly upregulated in thyroid carcinomas and shown to reduce the expression of HP1β. In contrast to HP1β, HP1α expression was only reduced in metastatic carcinomas and poorly differentiated lesions. These results suggest the reduction of HP1β followed by a decrease in HP1α contributes to the pathogenesis of thyroid carcinomas, and their loss is a potential marker of thyroid malignancy and metastatic potential, respectively.
