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

aimsThe present study was designed to evaluate the different expression of ubiquitin-like with PHD and ring finger domains 1 (UHRF1) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and the adjacent normal tissues, further explore the correlation between UHRF1 expression and the prognosis of HCC patients.

methodsThe UHRF1 expression at protein level in HCC tissues and the adjacent normal tissues were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Chi-square test was used to estimate the relationship between UHRF1 expression and clinicopathologic characteristics of HCC patients. The overall survival of HCC patients with diverse expression of UHRF1 was measured by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Cox regression analysis was conducted to judge the prognostic value of UHRF1 in HCC patients.

resultsThe UHRF1 was over-expressed in HCC tissues compared with the adjacent normal tissues according to the outcome of HPLC (P<0.001). Besides, the UHRF1 expression was tightly related to distant metastasis, cancer area, and HBV (P<0.05), but shared no correlation with gender, cirrhosis, and bilirubin (P>0.05). Patients with high UHRF1 expression had a shorter overall survival time than those with low UHRF1 expression (P<0.001). Cox regression analysis showed that UHRF1 was significantly linked with the prognosis of HCC patients (P=0.002, HR=5.807, 95% CI=1.901-17.742).

conclusionUHRF1 was over-expressed in HCC tissues compared to the adjacent normal tissues and UHRF1 expression shared significant relevance with distant metastasis, cancer area and HBV. It could be an important and independent prognostic biomarker for HCC patients.
