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

backgroundBreast cancer is a common gynecological malignant tumor and currently its clinical diagnosis mainly depends on methods of iconography and measurement of serum level.

objectiveTo analyze correlation between serum index levels and prognosis of patients with breast cancer in one week and six months after operation, and to establish support vector machine (SVM) model to evaluate its effectiveness.

methodsOne hundred sixty eight patients diagnosed with breast cancer at Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University were collected, 46 of which did palindromia while other 122 didn't six months after operation. Serum CA153, CA125 and CEA levels of different periods in two groups were analyzed from their differences. Through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, their diagnostic threshold values were calculated, at the same time, SVM model was built.

resultsThere was a significant difference between serum index levels of recurrence group and non-recurrence group in one week and six months after operation (P< 0.05); SVM model was established with an accuracy of 96.67% (29/30), a sensitivity of 90% (9/10) and a specificity of 100% (20/20).

conclusionsSerum CAl53, CEA and CA125 levels after operation have certain instructional significance for prognosis of breast cancer patients, and the established SVM model has high clinical application value.
