Significance of estrogen receptor subtypes in breast tumorigenesis and progression.

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.
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
The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of estrogen receptor (ER) subtypes (ERα and ERβ) on breast cancer development and progression. The expression level of ERα and ERβ in breast cancer tissues and paired normal breast tissues were detected by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. The features of ERα and ERβ status in cancer tissues or normal breast tissues and the correlations between clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis were analyzed. The expression levels of ERα and ERβ in breast cancer tissues are significantly lower than those in the paired normal tissues. The expression of ERβ is decreased more than that of ERα. ERα expression levels in cancer tissues are associated with tumor diameter, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage, and progesterone receptor (PR) status. However, ERβ expression levels in cancer tissues are not correlated with clinicopathological factors of patients with breast cancer. In conclusion, ER subtypes might play different roles in the development of breast cancer.
