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

backgroundWe aimed to investigate the interaction between CD133 and Nestin and further assessed the correlation of CD133 and Nestin with clinicopathological characteristics and survival in patients with astrocytic tumor.

methodsTotally 127 patients with astrocytic tumor underwent surgical resection were enrolled. Patients' age, gender, and World Health Organization (WHO) grade were recorded, and the survival data were extracted from the follow-up records. The expressions of CD133 and Nestin in astrocytic tumor tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemistry assay. The WHO grade I and II astrocytic tumors were defined as low-grade astrocytic tumors (LGA), the WHO grade III and IV astrocytic tumors were defined as high-grade astrocytic tumors (HGA).

resultsThere were 79 (62.2%), 34 (26.8%), 14 (11.0%), and 0 (0.0%) patients with CD133 negative, low, moderate, and high expression, respectively; 7 (5.5%), 47 (37.0%), 20 (15.7%), 53 (41.7%) patients with Nestin negative, low, moderate, high expression, respectively. CD133 and Nestin were both correlated with advanced WHO grade but not with age or gender, and positive correlation was observed between CD133 and Nestin. For survival, both CD133 and Nestin were correlated with unfavorable overall survival (OS), and further analysis illustrated that Nestin but not CD133 independently predicted poor OS. Subgroup analysis also revealed that Nestin but not CD133 negatively associated with shorter OS in LGA patients, while both CD133 and Nestin were correlated with poor OS in HGA patients.

conclusionCD133 and Nestin present as potential biomarkers for advanced pathological grade and poor survival in patients with astrocytic tumor.
