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

objectivePrevious studies have reported a close relationship between malignant mesothelioma (MM) and the immune matricial microenvironment (IMM). One of the major problems in these studies is the lack of adequate adjustment for potential confounders. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify and quantify risk factors such as IMM and various tumor characteristics and their association with the subtype of MM and survival.

methodsWe examined IMM and other tumor markers in tumor tissues from 82 patients with MM. These markers were evaluated by histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and morphometry. Logistic regression analysis, cluster analysis, and Cox regression analysis were performed.

resultsHierarchical cluster analysis revealed two clusters of MM that were independent of clinicopathologic features. The high-risk cluster included MM with high tumor cellularity, high type V collagen (Col V) fiber density, and low CD8

conclusionMorphometric analysis of Col V, CD8
