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

Stathmin 1 is an oncoprotein that regulates cell cycle by modulating microtubule dynamics and can cause uncontrolled cell proliferation in mutated state. The present study examined stathmin 1 expression in 49 patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) treated with docetaxel (Doc)-containing regimens by immunohistochemical staining. Moreover, we investigated the relationship between stathmin 1 expression and clinicopathological features, as well as the prognosis of above patients. Stathmin 1 could be detected in the cytoplasm of tumor cells in OSCC tissues though its expression level was variable. There was no correlation between stathmin 1 expression and patient gender, or age in OSCC. However, stathmin 1 expression of tumor cell was significantly correlated with T classification (P = 0.0017), N classification (P = 0.0171), stage (P < 0.0001), therapeutic efficacy (P < 0.0001), and patient outcome (P = 0.0387). In addition, high expression of stathmin 1 in tumor cells was associated with shorter overall survival (OS, P = 0.0017). Multivariate analysis also revealed that high expression of stathmin 1 was a predictor of reduced survival (P = 0.0241). These findings suggest that patients with OSCC tumors showing high expression of stathmin 1 might have poor therapeutic effects and worse clinical outcomes in OSCC treated with Doc-containing regimen.
