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.
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
objectivesMany patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) have a high recurrence risk and poor prognosis, and the main obstacle to the clinical diagnosis and treatment of PTC is lack of effective predictive molecular markers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological and prognostic implications of WW domain binding protein 5 (WBP5) expression in PTC. MATERIALS AND
methodsImmunohistochemistry of WBP5 was performed using tissue microarrays of 131 patients with PTC who underwent surgery during January 2006 and January 2010 in the Zhejiang Cancer Hospital. Statistical analyses were conducted to evaluate the association between WBP5 expression and the clinicopathological features and to analyze the disease-free survival (DFS) and prognostic factors. RESULTS AND
conclusionThe positive expression rate of WBP5 in PTC and the adjacent normal tissues was 42.75% (56/131) and 45.45% (10/22), respectively. WBP5 expression was significantly correlated with bilaterality, capsule invasion, and N-stage, and it was a favorable factor of DFS. Moreover, patients with a high WBP5 expression exhibited reduced risk of disease recurrence compared with that in patients with low WBP5 expression in the univariate analysis, whereas the multivariate analysis suggested that WBP5 was not an independent prognostic factor. Our results indicate that WBP5 might be a favorable prognosis indicator of PTC.
