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

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules have a crucial role in tumor immune evasion; however, the association of MHC class I molecules with outcomes in cancer patients remains controversial. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization-like receptor family caspase recruitment domain-containing 5 (NLRC5) has been reported to be a MHC class I transactivator. However, the expression and function of NLRC5 in cancer remains to be elucidated. The present study aimed to retrospectively examine NLRC5 expression in human tumor tissues and its association with clinical outcomes of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) stage III patients. The expression of MHC class I and NLRC5 in NSCLC were detected using immunohistochemistry (IHC). The association between their expression levels was assessed using the Pearson's χ
