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

objectThis study was performed to explain the underlying role of IL35 on the prognosis of patients with HCC.

methodsThe expression of IL35 at the protein level was detected with immunohistochemistry (IHC). Chi-square test was performed to analyze the relationship between IL35 expression and clinical parameters of HCC patients. The correlation between expression level of IL35 and the prognosis of patients with HCC was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression method.

resultsThe positive rate of IL35 expression in HCC samples was about 62.7%, which was significantly higher than that in paired normal specimens (12%). The analyses suggested that there was no correlation between IL35 expression and age, gender, and tumor size (P>0.05), but a tight relationship was found between IL35 expression and metastasis, AFP, HBV infection, Child-Pugh (P<0.05). Susequent Kaplan-Meier analysis result indicated that positive expression of IL35 induced low survival rate of HCC patients, and the Cox regression analysis suggested that IL35 might be a biomarker for prognosis of patients with HCC.

conclusionGenerally, results of this study demonstrated that expression of IL35 shared a close association with the prognosis of patients with HCC. Therefore, IL35 could be considered as a novel index for prognosis of patients with HCC.
