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

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of Sestirn2 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Quantitative real-time ( RT-PCR) and western blot were performed to investigate the mRNA and protein expression of Sestirn2 in NSCLC and corresponding non-cancerous tissues. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of Sestirn2 in 210 NSCLC tissue samples. Overall survival was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method and analyzed by the log-rank test between different groups. The results indicated that the Sestirn2 expression was significantly lower in NSCLC tissues than the corresponding non-cancerous lung tissues. Low Sestirn2 expression was related to poor tumor differentiation, advanced TNM stage, and lymph node metastasis. Patients with high Sestirn2 expression had longer overall survival than those with low expression levels, which was consistent with the results of the subgroup analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that high Sestirn2 expression was a favorable prognostic factor for NSCLC patients. Our study indicated that Sestirn2 could play an important role in the observation of prognosis in NSCLC and might be a valuable marker for predicting the treatment outcome in patients with NSCLC.
