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

backgroundOvarian cancer is associated with poor survival, because patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage of the disease, and in addition, tumors develop chemoresistance, which carries a poor prognosis for the patient. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe hypothesize that high expression of SDF-1, survivin and smac is associated with ovarian cancers development and could be used as a biomarker to identify this disease. The expressions of SDF-1, survivin and smac in normal ovarian (NO) tissue, benign tumor (BT) tissue and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) tissue were immunohistochemically analysed.

resultsPositive expressions of SDF-1, survivin and smac were significantly higher in EOC tissue than those in NO and BT tissues. SDF-1 expressions were significantly more weaker in advanced ovarian carcinomas (FIGO stage III-IV), and in high-grade carcinomas. There was a positive correlation between EOC patients with lymph node metastasis and with ascites and SDF-1 positivity (

conclusionThese results indicate that SDF-1, surviving and smac are closely associated with EOC metastasis.
