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

backgroundIn the course of neoplastic diseases, a reduction in SEMA3F expression is observed, which translates into an increase in the proliferative and proangiogenic potential of cells forming the tumor and the surrounding microenvironment.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the changes in SEMA3F level in endometrial cancer depending on its grade.

methodsThe study material consisted of tissue samples: 15 without neoplastic changes (control group) and 45 with endometrial cancer (G1, 17; G2, 15; G3, 13; study group). SEMA3F expression was assessed using the immune-histochemical method.

resultsThe expression of SEMA3F was observed in the control group (Me = 159.38) and in the study group (G1, Me = 121.32; G2, Me = 0; G3, Me = 130.37). Differences between each grade and control and between individual grades were statistically significant. There were no significant correlations between SEMA3F expression and weight and Body Mass Index (BMI). The reduced SEMA3F expression in tumor tissue compared to healthy tissue indicates that this protein plays key roles in proliferation and angiogenesis.

conclusionWe found that depending on the severity of the disease, cancer adopts different survival strategies, where SEMA3F plays an important role. As a molecular marker, SEMA3F is not sensitive to weight and BMI.
