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

A type of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV), HPV16 takes part in lung carcinogenesis. E6 and E7 are the major oncoproteins of high-risk HPV, and L1 is the major capsid protein. In this study, we detected their mRNA expressions and analyzed their relationship in the bronchial brushing cells of 211 patients with malignant lesions (squamous cell carcinoma of the lungs) and benign lesions (pneumonia and tuberculosis) by quantitative real-time PCR. HPV16 E6, E7, and L1 mRNA expressions in the malignant group were statistically higher than in benign group (P<0.05), and their mRNA expressions in the squamous cell carcinoma of the lung group were statistically higher than in pneumonia group (P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between L1 and E6 expression in the squamous cell carcinoma of the lungs group (Spearman correlation coefficient r=-0.498, P=0.000). An ROC curve shows that the combination of L1 and E6 is a significant predictor for the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lungs (AUC: 0.878; Sensitivity: 96.00%; Specificity: 77.91%), which could make up for the deficiency of cytologic testing. The combined detection of HPV16 E6 and L1 mRNA expressions in bronchial brushing cells by quantitative real-time PCR has a great significance for the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lungs, providing new therapeutic targets for the clinical treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the lungs.
