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

purposeThe role of cytokine-producing B cells in antitumor immunity is mostly overlooked. In the present study, we investigated changes in B cell cytokine profiles in breast tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) during disease progression, and associations of these changes with prognostic indicators.

methodsFlow cytometry was used to measure the expression of TNF-α, IL-10, TGF-β, IL-2 and IFN-γ in B cells from 42 axillary lymph nodes. The frequencies of IL-10

resultsNo significant changes in B cell cytokine profiles were observed during breast cancer progression from stage I to III, but the percentage of B cells with high TNF-α expression (TNF

conclusionsOur data indicate that the cytokine profiles of B cells in TDLNs of patients with breast cancer show associations with various disease parameters. TNF
