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 frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage and 70% of patients experience recurrence months to years from initial diagnosis. The expression of paraneoplastic antigens can result in the occurrence of onconeural autoantibodies in ovarian cancer that may be associated with neurological disorders that are clinically manifested in patients before diagnosis of ovarian cancer. These paraneoplastic antigens can serve as excellent biomarkers not only for early detection but also for monitoring ovarian cancer recurrence.

objectiveTo assess the immunoreactivity of our previous 3 biomarkers along with 3 paraneoplastic antigens, HARS, Ro52 and CDR2 for the evaluation of their sensitivity in predicting recurrence before the clinical relapse of the ovarian cancer.

methodsWestern blot immunoassays were performed to assess the immunoreactivity of 6 antigens with 21 recurrent ovarian cancer patients.

resultsThe results indicated that antibodies to HARS, Ro52, CDR2 and 5H6 antigens predicted ovarian cancer recurrence 5.03 months before the clinical or symptomatic relapse in 21 ovarian cancer patients with a sensitivity of 90.5% when CA125 levels were below the standard cutoff (35 U/ml).

conclusionOur study suggests that appearance of onconeural antibodies prior to the rise in CA125 during post treatment surveillance can be a useful diagnostic to predict ovarian cancer recurrence.
