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

In human, proximal convoluted tubules and thin limbs of Henle show expression of αB crystallin. Renal cell carcinoma also showed expression of αB crystallin in previous reports. We aimed to study the association between αB crystallin expression and renal cell carcinoma and urothelial carcinoma. Furthermore, we also investigated αB crystallin expression depending on the subtype of renal cell carcinoma and examined the relationship between αB crystallin expression and survival in patients with renal cell carcinoma. In our study, αB crystallin expression was different according to the type of tumor. A greater proportion of the clear cell type (52/77, 67.5%) and papillary type (4/4, 100%) showed reactivity compared to the chromophobe type (0/10, 0%). In the present study, a significantly greater number of renal cell carcinomas showed strong expression of αB crystallin (56/91, 61.5%) compared to urothelial carcinoma (P=7.967e-07). Therefore, αB crystallin might be a significant marker of renal cell carcinoma and might help to determine the type of renal tumor in cases of poorly differentiated kidney lesions and metastatic lesions. αB crystallin expression was not related to overall survival in univariate and multivariate models. In our study, alpha B crystallin could not be considered a prognostic marker of renal cell carcinoma.
