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

objectiveLimited data have been obtained in regard to pulmonary metastasis (PM) in patients with stage I endometrial cancer. The aims of the study were (1) to present the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with PM in the setting of stage I endometrioid-type endometrial cancer (EEC) and (2) to define possible factors that may be used to predict PM.

methodsSix hundred thirty patients with stage I EEC, including 12 with PM, 19 with extra-PM (EPM), and 599 with no recurrence, were observed. Paired samples of primary and metastatic tumors from a patient were used for exome sequencing to identify potential gene mutations associated with PM.

resultsThere was no significant difference in the age, Ki-67, lymphatic vascular space invasion, and grade 3 among the 3 groups (P > 0.05). More squamous epithelial differentiation was observed in PM (7/12), as compared with patients with EPM (1/19) (P < 0.05) and no recurrence (20/599) (P < 0.05). The tumor size of the patients with PM was bigger than that of nonrecurrent patients (29.8 ± 16.6 vs 18.5 ± 16.3 mm, P < 0.05). More percentage of patients with deep myometrial invasion (IB) were found in PM (6/12) (P < 0.05) as compared with patients with EPM (3/19) (P < 0.05) and no recurrence (76/599). CDH10, ARID1A, and EMT-associated gene mutations were identified in metastatic tumor tissue but not in primary tumors from a patient with EEC and lung metastases.

conclusionsSquamous epithelial differentiation, large tumor size, and deep myometrial invasion might be risk factors for PM in patients with stage I EEC. CDH10, ARID1A, and EMT-associated gene mutation may promote the initiation of lung recurrence. However, further studies are needed to determine the precise mechanisms associated with lung metastasis in these patients.
