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

Regulator of G-protein signaling (RGS) 5 acts as a GTPase-activating protein to negatively regulate G-protein signaling. RGS5 is reportedly related to the invasion and metastasis of cancers, such as nonsmall lung cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. We examined RGS5 expression and its relationship with invasion in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the tongue. For immunohistochemical analysis of RGS5, we used SCC tissues of the tongue obtained from 43 patients. We examined the relationship between RGS5 expression in the deepest point of invasion and clinicopathological features. Because the invasion and metastasis of cancers are related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), we carried out staining for N-cadherin, vimentin, and E-cadherin to examine the relationship between EMT and RGS5. RGS5 expression in the deepest point of invasion in SCC of the tongue was observed in 32 cases (75%). Immunohistochemical analysis revealed a significant correlation between RGS5 expression in the aggressive invasion pattern, invasion depth, and lymphovascular invasion. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that high RGS5 expression was associated with postoperative early lymph node metastasis. Further, a significant positive correlation was observed between RGS5 and N-cadherin (
