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

backgroundProstatic cancer is one of the most common cancers of males in a Sudanese population. The early detection is very important, as it is only curable at an early stage.

aimThe objective of this study was to investigate the expression pattern of Ki-67 in benign and malignant prostatic lesions to improve the diagnosis that may help in better management and prevention of disease. MATERIAL AND

methodsFifty-eight formalin fixed paraffin blocks from diagnosed cases of prostatic tumours with different grade, and stages were included in this study. Ki-67 expression was examined immunohistochemically by using monoclonal mouse anti-human Ki67 IS626. The results were correlated with Gleason score and tumour differentiation and stage.

resultsThe frequency of histological types was as follow: 11 cases of benign prostate, atic hyperplasia (19%) and 47 cases of prostatic cancer (81%). Our results stated that prostatic adenocarcinoma among Sudanese patients was of low grade which means tumours are less aggressive. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate that Ki-67 expression in prostatic carcinoma smears was correlated significantly with the degree of Gleason score (P < 0.05).

conclusionsWe found that the prostatic adenocarcinoma among Sudanese patients was less aggressive. Furthermore, Ki-67 expression was proportional to the grade of a tumour and it was a useful prognostic and diagnostic biomarker.
