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

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) of the salivary gland in the head and neck is characterized by indolent yet persistent growth, multiple local recurrences and early hematogenous metastasis. Considering the possible association between the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway and angiogenesis in various types of cancer and the overexpression of EGFR in AdCC, it is reasonable to examine the correlation between angiogenesis and the EGFR signaling pathway in this carcinoma. In the present study, the expression of EGFR, CD31, CD146 and hypoxia‑inducible factor‑1α (HIF‑1α) were evaluated by immunohistochemical staining with tissue microarray containing normal salivary gland (NSG), pleomorphic adenoma (PMA) and AdCC tissues. Pearson's correlation coefficient was conducted to demonstrate the correlation between EGFR, CD31, CD146 and HIF‑1α. To determine their similarity and intimacy, hierarchical analysis was performed with Cluster 3.0 and then visualized using TreeView software. Immunohistochemical results of tissue microarrays were quantified, revealing that the expression of EGFR, CD146 and HIF‑1α increased in AdCC compared with in PMA and NSG tissues. The association between the expression of EGFR and CD31 was significant and positive. The expression of CD146 and HIF‑1α was positively correlated with EGFR and CD31, respectively. These findings suggest that the EGFR signaling pathway has a vital role in AdCC progression and may be associated with HIF‑1α‑mediated angiogenesis. These results may enhance our understanding of the mechanism underlying AdCC progression and provide potential clinical therapeutic strategies based on the inhibition of EGFR.
