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

backgroundAlthough recent studies described important roles for carbonic anhydrase (CA) XII in epithelial carcinogenesis and tumor behavior, a consensus has not yet been reached regarding its clinicopathological significance in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In the present study, we investigated its prognostic significance in ESCC. MATERIALS AND

methodsAn immunohistochemical analysis was performed on 70 primary tumor samples obtained from ESCC patients who underwent esophagectomy, and the relationships between the expression of CA XII and various clinicopathological features or prognosis were analyzed.

resultsImmunohistochemical staining showed that CA XII was primarily found in the cell membranes of carcinoma cells. Although the expression of CA XII was related to the pT category, it had no prognostic impact. We then examined the expression of CA XII according to the pT category. In pT2-3 ESCC, the 3-year survival rate of patients with the high grade expression of CA XII (29.1 %) was significantly lower than that of patients with the low grade expression of CA XII (70.3 %). Furthermore, a multivariate analysis demonstrated that the expression of CA XII was one of the most important independent prognostic factors following radical esophagectomy in pT2-3 ESCC.

conclusionThese results suggest that the expression of CA XII may be a valuable prognostic factor for patients with advanced ESCC. The results of the present study provide an insight into the role of CA XII as a biomarker in ESCC.
