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

backgroundThere has been variability between laboratories in the identification of cancer stem cells (CSCs) markers for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We have evaluated three new surface markers for EOC to identify CSCs precisely.

methodsThree new putative CSCs specific surface markers CD9, CD24 and EPHA1 identified by a bioinformatics approach were evaluated in normal ovary, fallopian tube and ovarian tumours.

resultsThe expression of CD9 alone was observed in normal ovarian surface epithelium and fallopian tube whereas CD24 and EPHA1 were not expressed (n= 5). CD24 was expressed in all tumours (N= 101) while CD9 and EPHA1 were expressed in 89 and 71 tumours, respectively. The statistical analysis showed significant correlation of the stage of the disease (p< 0.0001), type of surgery (p< 0.0001) and residual disease (p< 0.0001) with overall survival. Although expression of CD9, CD24 and EPHA1 was observed in the majority of tumours there was no significant correlation with outcome. In patients who underwent primary surgery, increased expression of CD24 significantly correlated with poor survival. The expression of CD24 was significantly reduced (p< 0.002) upon analysis of paired sections from patients prior to surgery and at interval debulking surgery (n= 16).

conclusionThese findings suggest that overexpression of these new markers may be useful in identifying and targeting ovarian CSCs and CD24 may be a putative CSCs marker in ovarian cancer.
