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

Several risk factors like obesity and hyperlipidemia were described for endometrial cancer. Here, the nuclear NAD-dependent histone-deacetylase Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) seems to be important. SIRT1 is also involved in cell regulatory mechanisms and can serve as tumor promotor or suppressor. Its role in tumor biology is not clear yet. In this study, we evaluated and correlated the SIRT1 expression with patients' tumor characteristics in endometrioid and clear-cell cancer of the uterus. 65 paraffin-embedded samples of patients with endometrial and clear-cell cancer of the uterus were immunohistochemically stained and SIRT1 expression was evaluated by immunoreactive score. The results were correlated to clinical and pathological tumor characteristics as well as to the expression of ARID1A and β-Catenin. The staining was significantly more intensive in uterine endometrioid carcinoma compared to uterine clear-cell carcinoma (p = 0.007). The expression of SIRT1 correlated significantly with the membranous expression of β-Catenin (p = 0.028) and ARID1A (p = 0.021). Patients with positive Sirtuin1 expression had a significantly better progression-free survival (p = 0.042), the overall survival showed a trend towards a better prognosis (p = 0.070). SIRT1 expression seems to be associated with improved progression-free survival in uterine cancer (endometrioid and clear-cell) and is correlated to the tumor suppressors β-Catenin and ARID1A. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the role of SIRT1 in uterine and ovarian cancer and its potential as a therapeutic target.
