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

Osteopontin (OPN) has been investigated in the field of tumor research for several years. However, the prognostic role of OPN overexpression in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains controversial. A meta-analysis of four studies, including a total of 492 patients, was performed to determine the association of OPN with overall survival (OS) in AML patients. The random-effects model of Der Simonian and Laird was used to synthesize data; hazard ratio (HR) with its 95% confidence interval (CI) was used as the effect size estimate. It was observed that serum-based OPN was inversely correlated with OS and the difference was statistically significant (HR=1.83; 95% CI: 1.43-2.35; P<0.001). Experimental findings indicate that OPN overexpression is associated with a poor prognosis in AML and may be of prognostic value for AML stage and metastasis.
