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

CD103 is a transmembrane heterodimer complex that mediates cell adhesion, migration, and lymphocyte homing of cell through interaction with E-cadherin. Recently, CD103+ immune cells in human carcinoma has been investigated as a prognostic factor, however, the correlation between CD103+ immune cells and survival are still elusive. Therefore, a meta-analysis was performed to determine the prognostic value of CD103+ immune cells in solid tumor. Studies relevant to the subject was searched from PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. Ten studies including 2,824 patients were eligible for the analysis. Tumors positive for CD103+ immune cells were associated with favorable overall survival, disease-free survival, and disease-specific survival. Subgroup analysis revealed that assessing CD103+ immune cells in epithelial and total (both epithelial and stromal) areas or using whole slide section were associated with good prognosis. Furthermore, stromal CD103+ immune cells or CD103+ immune cells evaluated by tissue microarrays were not always significantly prognostic. In conclusion, these results show that CD103+ immune cells are associated with prognosis in solid tumor. However, the region of assessment and selection of material for the evaluation could affect the value of CD103 as a prognostic biomarker.
