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

We evaluated the relationship between IL-17 expression and tumor budding in the oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tumor invasion front (TIF). We also analyzed the correlation between OSCC prognosis and the co-expression of IL-17 and tumor budding. We obtained tumor tissues, tumor margins, and adjacent normal tissues from a total of 80 patients with OSCC. We measured IL-17 expression by ELISA and performed hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and immunohistochemical staining to evaluate the presentation of tumor budding and IL-17 expression in the TIF. IL-17 expression was significantly increased in the tumor tissues and margins compared with that in the normal tissues, which was confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. There were correlations between IL-17-positive tumor budding and T classification, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, clinical stage, and recurrence. In a multivariate survival analysis, the IL-17-positive tumor budding, besides tumor budding alone, was highly correlated with prognosis. Our results demonstrate a positive relationship between IL-17 expression and tumor budding in the OSCC TIF. IL-17 combined with tumor budding can serve as a valuable predictor of prognosis for patients with OSCC.
