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

Others and we have demonstrated that hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and transcriptionally upregulated Aurora-A are required for disease progression in several tumors. We investigated the clinicopathological value of HIF-1α and Aurora-A in primary duodenal adenocarcinoma (PDA). Using immunohistochemistry, we evaluated Aurora-A and HIF-1α expression semiquantitatively in 140 PDA cases. There were 76 cases from one institute that formed the training set; 64 cases from another two institutes were used as the testing set to validate the prognostic value of Aurora-A and HIF-1α expression. Aurora-A expression was high or sufficient in the tumor zone, whereas expression was low in the adjacent normal epithelia. High Aurora-A expression, identified using the training set receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis-generated cutoff score, predicted poorer overall survival both in the testing set (18.0 vs. 45.1 %, P = 0.001) and training set (23.1 vs. 53.9 %, P = 0.011). Multivariate Cox regression confirmed that Aurora-A was an independent prognostic factor. Contrary to previous studies, we did not detect any correlation between Aurora-A and HIF-1α. Survival analysis showed that HIF-1α level was not correlated with patient outcome (P = 0.466). Activation of Aurora-A, an independent negative prognostic biomarker, might be used to identify particular PDA patients for more selective therapy.
