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

objectivePBRM1, located on 3p21, functions as a tumor suppressor and somatic mutation of PBRM1 is frequent in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). This study aims to determine the influence of PBRM1 expression on the prognosis of patients with mRCC receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment.

methodsWe identified 116 mRCC patients who were administered sunitinib or sorafenib as first-line therapy, between January 2006 and December 2016 at our institution. PBRM1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), log-rank test was used to compare the survival outcomes between patients with low and high PBRM1 expression levels, and the Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to estimate the prognostic value. Prognostic accuracy was determined using Harrell concordance index, and nomograms were built to evaluate the prognosis of mRCC.

resultsPatients with low PBRM1 expression had significantly shorter median PFS (9 vs 26 months, P < 0.001) and OS (21 vs 44 months, P < 0.001) than those with high expression. Multivariate analysis showed that PBRM1 expression was an independent predictor of PFS (HR 1.975, P = 0.013) and OS (HR 2.282, P = 0.007). The model built by the addition of PBRM1 improved the C-index of PFS and OS to 0.72 and 0.82, respectively.

conclusionsThe expression of PBRM1 could be a significant prognostic factor for mRCC patients treated with targeted therapy, and it increases the prognostic accuracy of the established prognostic model.
