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

backgroundThe brain is a frequent site of metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of this study was to detect the expression of CUG-binding protein 1 (CUGBP1) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and Ki-67 in metastasized brain tissue from NSCLC and determine the relationship between CUGBP1 and brain metastases.

methodsThe expression of CUGBP1 mRNA and Ki-67 in metastasized brain tissue from NSCLC was investigated by semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry, respectively. The expression of CUGBP1 and Ki-67 in metastasized brain tissue from NSCLC was related to clinical characteristics, as assessed using the chi-square test. The prognostic significance was assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses using the Cox hazard model.

resultsThe expression of CUGBP1 mRNA and Ki-67 was overexpressed in metastasized brain tissue from NSCLC and was correlated with differentiation. In addition, by both univariate and multivariate survival analyses, CUGBP1 expression, Ki-67 expression, and age were noted to be independent indicators of a shorter postsurgical survival.

conclusionThe expression of CUGBP1 is an important factor in the development of brain metastases from NSCLC.
