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

β-Catenin is a multifunctional protein which plays a central role in physiological homeostasis, and it acts both as an adaptor protein for intracellular adhesion and a transcriptional co-regulator. As a pivotal component of the Wnt signaling pathway, the accumulation of β-catenin in the cytoplasm/nucleus leads to many diseases including cancer. The phosphorylation at Ser45 of β-catenin causes the degradation of β-catenin, which makes β-catenin at a very low level. It has been shown that phosphorylation at Ser45 of β-catenin is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors. However, little is known about the exact role of β-catenin Ser45-phosphorylation in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). PURPOSE: The present study was aimed at exploring the role and the prognostic value of the expression of β-catenin Ser45-phosphorylation in ESCC.

methodsThe expression of phosphorylation at Ser45of β-catenin was detected by immunohistochemistry in 90 cases of ESCC and their corresponding adjacent nonneoplastic esophageal tissues (n = 90). We then evaluated the relationships among the expressions of phosphorylation at Ser45 of β-catenin, the clinicopathological parameters, and the prognoses of the ESCC patients.

resultsThe expression level of phosphorylation at Ser45 of β-catenin in ESCC was 65.6% (59/90), significantly lower than the expression level in nonneoplastic esophageal tissues, where it was 88.9% (80/90), (X

conclusionβ-catenin Ser45-phosphorylation may play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of ESCC and may provide clinically useful prognostic information.
