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

ERα, ERβ, PR, ERα36, EGFR and HER2 mRNA and protein expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) were examined by real time RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining. The mRNA and protein expression of ERα and PR were gradually increased and those of ERβ were gradually decreased from normal thyroid tissues to nodular hyperplasias (P < 0.05) and to PTCs (P < 0.05). However, the mRNA and protein expression of ERα36, EGFR and HER2 were only significantly increased in PTCs when compared with those in normal thyroid tissues (P < 0.001) and nodular hyperplasias (P < 0.001). There was some correlation between ERα, ERβ and PR, and between ERα36, EGFR and HER2 protein expression in PTCs. As for ERα, ERβ and PR, there was a significant positive correlation between ERα and PR, and a significant negative correlation between ERα and ERβ and between PR and ERβ protein expression. As for ERα36, EGFR and HER2, there was a significant positive correlation between ERα36, EGFR and HER2 protein expression in PTCs. Concomitant high expression of ERα36, EGFR and HER2 was strongly associated with aggressive behaviors including extrathyroidal extension (ETE), lymph node metastasis (LNM) and high TNM stage in PTCs (P < 0.001).
