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

backgroundCCR6 expression is deregulated in some human malignancies and may be involved in the tumor progression. The aim of the present study was to determine the CCR6 expression in gastric cancer (GC) and to clarify its clinical significance.

methodsWe used western blotting to examine CCR6 protein expression in GC tissues and matched adjacent non-tumor tissues. Immunohistochemistry was performed on a large cohort of 372 postoperative GC samples. Chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression model were used to analyze the data.

resultsUpregulated CCR6 protein expression was observed in the GC tissues by western blotting compared with the adjacent non-cancerous gastric tissues. High CCR6 expression was detected in 56.5 % (210/372) samples and significantly associated with the extracapsular extension of the tumor, tumor relapse and poor overall survival in GC (P < 0.001). Further analysis demonstrated that the CCR6 expression level stratified the patient outcome in stage II, stage III, T3/4, N positive and poorly differentiated/undifferentiated tumor subgroups. The Cox regression analysis showed that high expression of CCR6 was an independent prognostic factor for GC patients.

conclusionsCCR6 expression may be a novel biomarker for predicting clinical outcomes for GC patients.
