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

backgroundLAMP2 is one of the major protein components of lysosome. In addition to the expression on the lysosomal membrane, LAMP2 has also been found relocalizing to the cell surface of some highly metastatic tumor cells.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to detect the expression levels of LAMP2 and discuss its roles in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

methodsSix hundred and ten tissue samples of ESCC were collected to construct tissue microarrays, which were stained by immunohistochemistry.

resultsAfter immunohistochemical staining, 596 patients including 460 men and 136 women were analyzed. The LAMP2 expression levels were significantly different based on degrees of histological differentiation (χ2= 108.906, P< 0.001). The similar results were also observed in TNM stages (χ2= 23.835, P< 0.01). LAMP2 expression levels negatively correlated with degrees of histological differentiation (P< 0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that the LAMP2 expression levels were correlated with the degrees of histological differentiation (OR=𝑑𝑖𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 0.452, P< 0.001) and TNM stages (OR=𝑇𝑁𝑀 1.482, P= 0.42). Besides, Kaplan-Meier survival curves indicated that patients with higher expression of LAMP2 exhibited poor prognosis (P< 0.05).

conclusionsOur results demonstrated that LAMP2 expression levels correlated with tumor histological differentiation and TNM stages. High expression of LAMP2 predicts poor prognosis in patients with ESCC.
