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

Cyclins are a group of cell cycle regulatory proteins. Cyclin B acts as an activator to cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), a protein kinase essential for G2/M phase transition. Deregulation of cyclins has been linked to a number of malignant neoplasms, but the impact on clinicopathological parameters seems to be cancer-specific. Overexpression of cyclin B has been shown to affect survival in some malignant tumors, including breast and esophageal cancer, but its impact on endometrial cancer has not been extensively studied. For this study, 211 endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma samples were obtained from patients surgically treated at the Oulu University Hospital. The samples were immunohistochemically stained and analyzed for cyclin B expression. The relationships between cyclin B expression and conventional prognostic factors were analyzed. A discrimination threshold for survival analyses was calculated by utilizing the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) method. Cyclin B expression correlated with grade and advanced stage. Survival analyses showed that cyclin B expression affects cancer-specific survival in univariate analysis. In multivariate analysis, the results were indicative that cyclin B may hold independent prognostic significance, but further studies are required to assess this.
