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

F box only protein 8 (FBX8) is a novel component of F-box proteins which involved in the ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic pathway. Recent studies have revealed that FBX8 was unregulated in tumor cells and was closely associated with tumor progression and metastasis of other cancer, but little research has been done yet to test its usefulness as a prognostic marker in human glioma. In the present study, we investigated the expression of FBX8 in glioma tissues using immunohistochemical analysis and evaluated its prognostic significance in glioma. We found that 44/77 (57.14%) gilomas had positive expression of FBX8, while 65/77 (84.42%) normal brain tissue had positive expression of FBX8. The expression level of FBX8 was remarkably down-regulated in glioma tissues compared with normal brain tissues (P < 0.001). The down-expression of FBX8 in tumor cells was strongly correlated with tumor grade of patients with glioma (P < 0.05). Patients with lower expression of FBX8 protein had shorter overall survival time than those with higher level expression of FBX8 (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that FBX8 down-expression was an independent prognostic indicator for glioma patient's survival. Our results suggest that a potential application of FBX8 in prognosis prediction and therapeutic application in glioma.
