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

backgroundAlthough the clinicopathological significance of serum p53 antibodies (s-p53-Abs) in esophageal cancer have been evaluated previously, previous reports only analyzed around 100-200 patients. This study was a multi-institutional study promoted by the Japan Esophageal Society to evaluate the clinical significance of preoperative s-p53-Ab status and antibody titers in 1487 esophageal cancer patients without neoadjuvant therapy.

methodsA total of 1487 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma surgically treated between 2008 and 2016 in 15 hospitals in Japan were enrolled. The cut-off value to classify the patients into s-p53-Ab positive and negative groups was 1.30 U/ml. A receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed to assess the s-p53-Abs cut-off levels to differentiate poor prognosis among the s-p53-Ab positive group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to evaluate the clinicopathological and prognostic significance of s-p53-Ab status and titers.

resultsAlthough s-p53-Ab status was significantly associated with tumor depth (P = 0.002), nodal status (P = 0.027), and pathological stage (P = 0.002). The s-p53-Ab positive status was not significantly associated with poor overall survival (P = 0.699). Using 9.82 U/ml as a cut-off, the high s-p53-Ab titer group showed a significantly worse overall survival than the low s-p53-Ab titer group (P = 0.038). However, the difference was not significant in the multivariate analysis.

conclusionThe presence of s-p53-Abs was associated with tumor progression. Although high s-p53-Ab titers more than 9.82 U/ml, might be associated with poor prognosis for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, it was not an independent risk factor.
