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

backgroundHypomethylation of long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1) is closely related to certain cancers and concerns with aggressive tumor behavior. Previously, we reported LINE-1 open reading frame-1 (ORF1) protein level was significantly up-regulated in ovarian cancers compared with normal ovary. Hypomethylation of local LINE-1 sequence has been reported to reactivate MET proto-oncogene in colon cancers and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the relationship between LINE-1 and c-MET expressions in ovarian cancer is not yet studied.

methodHere, we analyzed the expression patterns of LINE-1 ORF1 and c-Met protein in ovarian cancer tissue microarrays containing 208 surgical specimens including normal ovary and malignant ovarian cancers.

resultsThe expressions of both LINE-1 ORF1 and c-Met protein were significantly increased in ovarian cancers and peaked in early stage of tumor. Other clinical data including age and tumor types were not significantly related with both proteins. Co-relationship between LINE-1 ORF1 and c-Met protein was significant (p = 0.03) but several patients show different expression patterns.

conclusionsThese results propose that LINE-1 ORF1 significantly activates c-Met but not in all cases, suggesting other factors may be involved simultaneously.
