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

objectiveIn published studies, Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1) correlated with the prognosis of patients with breast cancer (BC), but the specific role of YB-1 is still unclear. Our study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of YB-1 in BC patients using meta-analysis based on the published studies.

methodsWe searched the relevant literatures deadline for June 2014 in databases, including PubMed, Embase, Medline and Cochrane library, and finally 8 studies were included in our study. Our study contained 1094 BC patients with 398 YB-1 positive and 696 YB-1 negative.

resultsOur results showed that YB-1 abnormal expression did not correlated with the lymph node status [OR = 1.258, 95% CI = 0.895-1.769, P = 0.186], high histological grade [OR = 2.709, 95% CI = 0.861-8.530, P = 0.089], histological type [OR = 0.837, 95% CI = 0.526-1.331, P = 0.452], P53 status [OR = 2.006, 95% CI 0.686-5.865, P = 0.203] and PR [OR = 0.607, 95% CI = 0.347-1.061, P = 0.080] in BC patients. But YB-1 over-expression was associated with other unfavorable factors: ER negativity [OR = 0.604, 95% CI = 0.388-0.941, P = 0.026], HER2 positivity [OR = 3.841, 95% CI = 2.637-5.594, P = 0.000], and high tumorous T stage [OR = 2.169, 95% CI = 1.295-3.632, P = 0.003]. In addition, our data suggested that high YB-1 expression had an adverse impact on 5-year OS [RR = 2.767, 95% CI = 2.054-3.727, P = 0.000] in BC patients.

conclusionsOur findings implied that YB-1 might a novel biomarker to predict the prognosis of BC, and could be a potential direction for developing diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in BC.
