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

Ether à-go-go 1 (KCNH1, Kv10.1) (Eag1) is a voltage-gated potassium channel, which is commonly overexpressed in tested breast cancer patients. This occurrence makes it a potential molecular marker and a promising tool for breast cancer diagnosis and therapy. In order to explore protective or specific polyclonal antibodies for further research, potential linear epitopes from Eag1 were collected by sequence alignment. The sequence was synthesized and then coupled to the carrier protein keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) for animal immunization. Polyclonal antibodies against Eag1 were produced and purified from the rabbit antisera. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and western blot were performed to characterize their specificities. Immunohistochemical staining was carried out on normal and cancerous breast tissue sections using the purified polyclonal Eag1-specific antibodies. The results indicate that the overexpression of Eag1 might be associated with an increased risk of progression to breast cancer (Grade 1 tissue = 57.89%;Grade 2 tissue = 92.59%;Grade 3 tissue = 100%). These results also suggest that Eag1 gene is a putative growth-promoting gene that might be involved in breast tumorigenesis and development. Eag1 might further be represented as a potential target for some human diseases treatment.
