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

Cluster of differentiation 74 (CD74), a transmembrane glycoprotein, has been previously reported to be important in the pathogenesis of several cancers, including hematological malignancies and solid tumors. The present study analyzed the significance of CD74 in gallbladder carcinomas (GBCs) and indicated the correlation of CD74 expression with epithelial growth factor receptor levels. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to examine the expression of CD74 in GBC and normal gallbladder tissues, and western blotting was used to investigate whether CD74 expression varied in well-, moderately- and poorly-differentiated tumors. The correlation between the expression of CD74 and epithelial growth factor receptor levels was studied using the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. The results of the IHC analysis revealed that CD74 was not expressed in the normal gallbladder tissues, and the mean integrated optical density value of CD74 in the poorly-differentiated tissues was increased compared with that in the well- and moderately-differentiated tissues. The results of the western blotting were consistent with the results of the IHC. The expression of CD74 was positively correlated with epithelial growth factor receptor levels (r=0.607; P<0.05). These results indicate that CD74 may be important in the progression of GBC.
