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

backgroundChromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 1-like (CHD1L) played vital roles in tumorigenesis and development. Its aberrant expression was reported to be related to progression and prognosis in various tumors. However, no consensus on the prognostic value of CHD1L protein has been made. This meta-analysis was aimed to assess the clinical significance of CHD1L protein in human solid tumors.

methodsWeb of Science, PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang databases were extensively searched to retrieve publications that reported the association between CHD1L expression and cancer prognosis. Hazard ratios (HRs) or odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were applied to assess the strength of the associations through Stata statistical software version 12.0 or Revman software 5.3, respectively.

resultA total of 14 studies were screened according to the inclusion criteria. The pooled results revealed patients with higher CHD1L expression manifested with decreased overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.59, 95% CI: 1.29-1.89, P < .001) and poorer disease-free survival (DFS) (HR: 1.66, 95% CI: 1.17-2.15, P < .001). The prognostic value of CHD1L protein for OS was further confirmed by performing subgroup meta-analysis. Furthermore, the pooled results revealed a positive correlation of CHD1L protein expression with tumor depth (OR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.48-2.37), lymph node metastasis (OR: 1.46, 95% CI: 1.01-2.11), and distant metastasis (OR: 1.86, 95% CI: 1.45-2.38).

conclusionCHD1L overexpression was associated with poor prognosis and advanced clinicopathological features, CHD1L may be a valuable biomarker for prognostication of cancer patients.
