Expressions of Orphan Nuclear Receptor TR3/Nur77 in Chronic Hepatopathy and Its Clinical Significance.
Article in Journal of clinical & experimental oncology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
objectiveAlthough great success has been achieved in cancer treatment, current cancer therapies, including anti-tumorigenesis and anti-angiogenesis, still face the problems of insufficient efficacy, resistance and intrinsic refractoriness, in addition to their toxic side effects. There is a demand to identify additional targets that can be blocked to turn off the downstream effects of most, if not all, pathways. Our studies suggest that orphan nuclear receptor TR3 (human)/Nur77 (mouse) is such a target. Most recently, we reported that TR3/Nur77 expression in human hepatic cancer tissues correlates well with tumor progress, suggesting that TR3 is a specific therapeutic target for hepatic cancers. However, the correlation of TR3/Nur77 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with chronic hepatitis has not been studied.
methodsThe expression of TR3/Nur77 was analyzed in human primary hepatic cancer specimens from patients that have complete medical records with Immunohistochemically staining. The statistical analysis was used to access the significance of TR3 expression in tumor tissues, cirrhosis tissues and chronic hepatitis tissues with and without hepatitis B virus infection (HBV(+) and HBV(-)), which were obtained from para-tumor tissues.
resultsThe positive rates of TR3/Nur77 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma, cancerous liver cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis are 66.67%, 30%, and 20%, respectively, which are statistic significant (p<0.05). The positive rates of TR3/Nur77 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma are statistic significant (p<0.05) with 81.25% and 20% in HBV (+) or HBV (-), respectively.
conclusionThe positive expression rate of TR3/Nur77 in hepatocellular carcinoma is higher than that in chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis. The positive rate of TR3/Nur77 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma is higher with HBV infection than that without infection. Our results suggest that TR3/Nur77 plays an important role in the progression of chronic hepatitis, and the occurrence and development of HCC.
