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

purposeGiant cell tumor (GCT) of bone is a vessel-rich and infiltrative tumor, but the fundamental knowledge of its biological behavior remains unknown now.

methodsIn this study, we evaluated the expression levels of Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 3 (IMP3), Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) and CD105 in 38 patients with GCT of spine by Immunohistochemical staining. Additionally, we also analyzed their correlations with clinicopathological factors of giant cell tumor of spine.

resultsThe results showed that positive expression of IMP3 and IGF2 was tightly related to the tumor extension and local recurrence of GCT (P < 0.05), but it did not indicate any association with patients' age, gender, tumor location and size. The mean microvessel densities (MVDs) of IMP3 and IGF2 were significantly higher in positive group than negative group (P < 0.05). Moreover, a significant correlation was found between IMP3 and IGF2 expression (r = 0.355, P = 0.029). The log-rank test revealed that local recurrence-free survival time was significantly shorter in the IMP3 positive group (P = 0.004), and the difference in the IGF2 positive group and negative group was also statistically significant (P = 0.008).

conclusionIMP3 and IGF2 might be potential biomarkers for GCT of spine in regulating the angiogenesis of giant cell tumor of bone and predicting the patients' prognosis.
