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

Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) protein is an important adhesion molecule that facilitates metastasis on one hand, and on the other hand supports the immunological synapse necessary for T-cell mediated elimination. The expression pattern of ICAM-1 in melanoma was studied more than two decades ago, mainly in cell lines or in unmatched melanoma specimens. By using real time PCR we could not demonstrate a clear difference in ICAM-1 mRNA levels between primary melanocytes and primary cultures of metastatic melanoma. However, immunohistochemistry staining of progression tissue microarray comprised of samples of different disease stages derived from different patients, demonstrated a dramatic ICAM-1 upregulation particularly upon the transition from primary tumor to lymph node metastasis. There was no significant difference between lymph node and distant metastases. Importantly, these results were confirmed in an independent tissue microarray comprised of patient-paired specimens from progressive stages of the patient's disease. These data indicate that ICAM-1 upregulation is required to initiate the lymphatic spread of melanoma (Stage III) but no further increase is associated with progression to remote organs (Stage IV).
