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

backgroundNon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the leading malignant tumors worldwide. Aberrant gene promoter methylation contributes to NSCLC, and PRDM is a tumor suppressor gene family that possesses histone methyltransferase activity. This study aimed to investigate whether aberrant methylation of PRDM promoter is involved in NSCLC. MATERIALS AND

methodsPrimary tumor tissues, adjacent nontumorous tissues, and distant lung tissues were collected from 75 NSCLC patients including 52 lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) patients and 23 lung adenocarcinoma patients. The expression of PRDMs was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Western blot, and immunohistochemical analysis. The methylation of PRDM promoters was detected by methylation-specific PCR. The correlation of methylation and expression of PRDMs with clinicopathological characteristics of patients were analyzed.
