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

backgroundGlucose metabolism of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) of the pancreas is unclear. S6 ribosomal protein (S6) phosphorylation is involved not only in controlling cell growth but also in glucose metabolism in cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of S6 phosphorylation and the significance of glucose metabolic changes in IPMN.

methodsRecords of 39 patients who underwent preoperative FDG-PET and curative resection were enrolled in this study. S6 phosphorylation and GLUT1 expression were evaluated immunohistochemically in these patients. The effect of S6 phosphorylation on glucose uptake was examined in cancer cell lines. To examine the change of glucose metabolism in IPMN clinically, the relation between clinical factors including FDG-PET and malignancy of IPMN was investigated.

resultsS6 phosphorylation and GLUT1 expression were significantly higher in carcinoma than in normal cells or adenoma. Cell lines with high level of S6 phosphorylation showed high glucose uptake, and inhibition of S6 phosphorylation reduced glucose uptake. In clinical examination, FDG-PET was the independent factor related to the diagnosis of adenoma or carcinoma (odds ratio = 20.0, 95% confidence interval = 1.837-539.9,

conclusionS6 phosphorylation was associated with glucose uptake and malignancy of IPMN. Moreover, glucose uptake increased in malignant cells of IPMN, and FDG-PET is useful for detecting malignancy of IPMN.
