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

purposeTo investigate the application value of serum CXC Chemokine-13 (CXCL-13) and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) in elderly patients with gastric cancer (GC).

methodsNinety-eight elderly GC patients admitted to the Affiliated Hexian Memorial Hospital of Southern Medical University were selected as a research group, and 60 healthy subjects of the same age and in relatively good health who underwent physical examination at the same period were selected as a control group. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of CXCL13 and PECAM-1 in serum. The clinical diagnosis and prognostic value of serum CXCL13 and PECAM-1 in elderly GC patients were analyzed.

resultsThe levels of CXCL13 and PECAM-1 in serum of the research group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.001). The AUC value of combined diagnosis of elderly GC patients by serum CXCL13 and PECAM-1 was 0.950, and that of combined evaluation of prognosis of patients was 0.849. Serum CXCL13 and PECAM-1 were significantly related to TNM staging, differentiation degree and tumor diameter in elderly GC patients (P < 0.05). High levels of CXCL13 and PECAM-1 were significantly associated with lower 5-year OS (P < 0.05).

conclusionElderly GC patients with higher TNM staging, longer tumor diameters, high levels of CXCL13 and PECAM-1 had an increased risk of poor prognosis. Serum CXCL13 and PECAM-1 can be used as effective indicators for diagnosis and prognosis of elderly patients with GC, and can predict the 5-year OS in patients.
