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

backgroundAldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1, a biomarker of cancer stem cells), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9, known as a matrilysin), Integrin αvβ3 (known as a biomarker of cell-matrix adhesion) and KiSS-1 (suppressor gene of tumor metastasis) are all related to cancer invasion and metastasis in many cancers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of ALDH1, MMP9, Integrin αvβ3, and KiSS-1 in invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), and their respective associations with clinical characteristics and survival in IDC.

methodsImmunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of ALDH1, MMP9, Integrin αvβ3, and KiSS-1 in 227 whole IDC tissue specimens. Patients' clinical and demographic data were both collected.

resultsThe expression of ALDH1, MMP9, and Integrin αvβ3 were significantly higher in IDC tissues than in the control tissues. The positive expressions of ALDH1, MMP9, and Integrin αvβ3 were positively associated with tumor grades, lymph node metastasis (LNM), tumor stages, and tumor node metastasis (TNM) stages, and inversely with overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Positive expression of KiSS-1 was negatively associated with tumor grades, LNM, tumor stages, and TNM stages, but positively with OS and RFS. A multivariate analysis demonstrated that the positive expression of ALDH1, MMP9, Integrin αvβ3, KiSS-1, ER, and HER-2, as well as TNM stages were independent prognostic factors for OS and RFS in IDC.

conclusionsThe expression of ALDH1, MMP9, Integrin αvβ3, and KiSS-11 should represent promising biomarkers in predicting metastasis and prognosis, as well as being potential therapeutic targets for IDC.
