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

The aim of the study is to investigate the expression of angiogenesis (VEGF and PDGF), angiogenesis inhibitor markers (angiostatin and endostatin), proliferation (Ki67), and apoptosis markers (p53 and p16) of cervical cancer in Indian population and to correlate them with the clinicopathological profile. It is a descriptive study of consecutive cases of cervical cancer from Saveetha Medical College and Hospital between January 2017 and December 2018. The expression of angiogenesis, angiogenesis inhibitor markers, Ki67, p53, and p16 in 60 cases of cervical sections were detected by the immunohistochemical method and analyzed with clinicopathological data. VEGF expression was positive in 16 cases (26.67%) and negative in 20 cases (33.33%). As of PDGF, 3 cases (3.33%) have shown positivity to PDGF and 33 cases have shown negativity. Angiostatin and endostatin expression was reported to be positive in 10 (16.67%) and 21 (35%) cases, respectively. Most of the cases 57 (95%) have shown both p16 and Ki67 positivity. Although p53 expression was positive in 48 cases (80%), the remaining 12 cases (20%) were p53-negative. The PDGF expression was significantly correlated to the stage of tumors. No statistically significant association was observed between angiogenesis inhibitor markers and clinicopathological parameters. A significant positive correlation was noticed between the Ki67 expression and stage of tumors.
