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

objectiveTo investigate the expression of CHCHD2, a potential tumor marker, in tumor and adjacent tissues from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

methodsImmunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression and location of CHCHD2 in the tumor tissues from 60 patients with NSCLC and 35 adjacent tissues to analyze the correlation of CHCHD2 expression with the clinicopathological variables and overall survival of the patients. The expression profile of CHCHD2 mRNA in NSCLC was analyzed using Oncomine database.

resultsThe positivity rate of CHCHD2 was significantly higher in the tumor tissues than in adjacent tissues in patients with NSCLC (75.0% vs 17.1%). CHCHD2 positivity in the tumor tissues was associated with lymph node metastasis, pathological TNM stage, and tumor grades but not with age, gender, or histological type of the tumors. Analysis using Oncomine database showed that CHCHD2 mRNA was expressed at significantly higher levels in NSCLC than in normal control group (P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that NSCLC patients with a positive expression of CHCHD2 had a significantly shorter overall survival time than those negative for CHCHD2 (P<0.05).

conclusionAs a potential tumor marker, CHCHD2 over-expression plays a role in the occurrence and progression of NSCLC and promotes tumor invasion and metastasis, and can potentially serve as an indicator for early diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of NSCLC.
