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

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) plays an important role in carcinogenesis, which catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins. P53 is a tumor suppressor gene that contributes to apoptosis and cell cycle control. There is functional interaction between p53 and COX-2, which lead to abrogation of apoptosis and progression of malignancy. To assess the relationship between COX-2, p53 expression and the clinicopathololgic features in SLL and DLBCL. We immunohistochemically examined the expression of COX-2 and p53 in non-neoplastic lymphoid cells, lymph nodal low-grade (50 cases of SLL), intermediate and high-grade lymphomas (100 cases of DLBCL) and their corresponding bone marrow specimens. The expression of COX-2 and p53 was absent in the in non-neoplastic lymphoid cells. In contrast, their expression values increased progressively with the advancing grade of lymphoma (p < 0.001). COX-2 expression was significantly associated with advanced disease stage, high-grade lymphomas, and disease relapse and p53 expression. The p53was detected in 64.5% in patients positive for COX-2. The expressions of COX-2 and p53 proteins, were significantly associated with shorter overall-survival and progression free survival. Here we report up-regulation of COX-2and p53 protein expression in SLL and DLBCL indicating their interactive involvement in the pathogenesis of lymphoma. Our data provide a rationale for further investigation of COX-2 expression in lymphomas for potential prognostic, chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic purposes.
