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

backgroundIt has been proven that metastasis associated protein 1 (MTA1) was correlated with tumor invasion and migration and poor prognosis of several malignant carcinomas. The prognostic role of MTA1 expression in lung cancer remained controversial, we performed this meta-analysis to assess the prognostic value of MTA1 expression in lung cancer.

methodsA systematic literature search was conducted to identify eligible studies which dealing with the relationship between MTA1 expression and prognosis of lung cancer in PubMed, Embase, Wanfang databases, China Biology Medicine disc and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The pooled hazard ratio (HR) were used to assess the relationship between MTA1 expression and prognosis of lung cancer. All data were analysed using the Stata 12.0 software.

resultsA total of 712 Chinese lung cancer patients from 8 studies were included in this meta-analysis. There was significant heterogeneity existed in these studies (I2=59.0%, P=0.017), so we used a random effects model to calculate the pooled HR=2.07 (95%CI: 1.42-3.02, P<0.001). At the same time, we observed through stratified analysis by histology that there was no significant heterogeneity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the fixed effects model was used to calculate the pooled HR=1.66 (95%CI: 1.27-2.18, P<0.001).

conclusionsOverexpression of MTA1 could be a marker of poor prognosis in Chinese NSCLC patients, but not in lung cancer or small cell lung cancer. Additional studies with larger samples and well-designed were required to derive the more precise outcome.
