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

CSN6 is a subunit of the constitutive photomorphogenesis 9 (COP9) signalosome (CSN). CSN is involved in cellular and developmental processes such as signal transduction, transcriptional activation, cell cycle control, and tumorigenesis. CSN6 is highly expressed in several human cancers, including colorectal cancer, and breast cancer. However, no previous research has elaborated on the relationship between CSN6 expression and survival in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical significance of CSN6 in UTUC. CSN6 expression in 89 patients with UTUC enrolled in this study was examined using immunohistochemistry. The associations between CSN6 expression and clinicopathological variables were analyzed. CSN6 expression was significantly correlated with patients with high pathological stage (P = .006), male gender (P = .025), and high serum creatinine levels (P = .014). In univariate and multivariable analysis, high CSN6 expression was associated with a higher bladder recurrence (P = .005) and poor cancer-specific survival (P = .001) for UTUC. In conclusion, CSN6 expression is a potential biomarker for predicting cancer recurrence and clinical survival in UTUC. Further research is necessary to investigate its role in the progression of UTUC.
