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

objectiveTo examine the expression of cortactin in epithelial ovarian cancer, and discuss the relationship between the expression of cortactin and the clinical pathology characteristics in epithelial ovarian cancer, as well as clinical significance.

methodsThe expression of cortactin was detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and immunohistochemical SP method in epithelial ovarian cancer.

results(1) The relative content of cortactin mRNA in epithelial ovarian cancer tissue was higher than that in benign control tissue, and expression was related to histological classification and FIGO stage. (2) Cortactin protein was localized in the cytoplasm and membrane of tumor cells. The positive rate of cortactin was 73.3 % in epithelial ovarian cancer, and the rate of cortactin expression was related to histological classification. (3) The average survival period of epithelial ovarian cancer patients with positive expression of cortactin was 19.5 ± 1.2 months (95 % CI 14.6-21.4 months), compared with 34.5 ± 4.3 months in the negative expression group (95 % CI 22.1-25.9 months). Univariate survival analysis showed that: negative expression of cortactin had a significant survival advantage (χ (2) = 5.739, P = 0.017). A cox regression model for multivariate analysis revealed that cortactin was an independent prognostic factor for epithelial ovarian cancer (P = 0.001; RR = 6.452, 95 % CI 2.289-7.112).

conclusionsNegative expression of cortactin was an independent prognostic factor and had a survival advantage. This suggested that cells with poor differentiation showed increasing motility. Cortactin is closely related to poor prognosis.
