Elevated RABEX-5 expression predicts poor prognosis in non-small-cell lung cancer.
Article in American journal of cancer research, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
RABEX-5 has been studied in various solid tumors, but its role in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unknown. This study is aimed to investigate the expression, the potential relevance to clinicopathological characters and prognostic significance of RABEX-5 in patients with NSCLC. A total of 120 NSCLC patients who underwent radical surgery between 2005 and 2010 were enrolled in the study. The clinicopathological data and survival time were reviewed. The mRNA and protein expression of RABEX-5 from the paired tumor specimens and adjacent normal tissues were determined, and its relationship with clinicopathological variables and prognosis was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to investigate the prognostic significance of RABEX-5 for NSCLC. We found the mRNA and protein expression levels of RABEX-5 were significantly elevated in NSCLC tissues. The increased RABEX-5 expression was correlated strongly with tumor recurrence (P=0.005). The 5-year median OS and DFS were significantly shorter in the higher RABEX-5 expression group compared to that in the lower RABEX-5 expression group. Multivariate Cox analysis indicated that high RABEX-5 expression was an independent prognostic factor for OS and DFS (P<0.001). This data suggests that RABEX-5 is a potentially useful indicator for a poor prognosis for NSCLC.
