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

Sex-determining region Y (SRY)-box 1 (SOX1) as a member of the SOX gene superfamily is reported to function as a tumor suppressor in hepatocelluar cancer (HCC). However, the clinicopathological and prognostic significance of SOX-1 expression in HCC is unclear. First, semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot assays were performed to detect the expression of SOX-1 mRNA and protein in 15 paired of HCC tissues and corresponding nontumor tissues. Next, immunohistochemistry was performed to detect SOX-1 protein expression in another 96 cases of HCC tissues, and analyze its correlation with clincopathological factors of patients. Finally, the survival was evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method and proportional hazards model. Results showed that the expression levels of SOX-1 mRNA and protein in HCC tissues were significantly lower than that in the corresponding nontumor tissues. Statistical analyses indicated that low SOX-1 expression was significantly correlated with higher incidence of venous or lymphatic invasion and advanced TNM stage. Also, patients with high SOX-1 expression showed better overall survival than those with low SOX-1 expression, and multivariate analysis with the Cox proportional hazards indicated that status of SOX-1 expression might be an independent prognostic factor in HCC patients. Collectively, our results indicated that downregulation of SOX-1 was correlated with poor prognosis and tumor development in HCC.
