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

objectivesEpigenetic phenomena are changes in gene expression not involving the DNA sequence. DNA methylation is a major occurrence underlying epigenetic changes in human cells. Although aberrant DNA methylation is well documented in malignant lesions, limited information has been shown on the involvement of DNA methylation in oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid lesions (OLP). The present study aimed to investigate DNA methylation of E-cadherin and p16 in OLP, and compare the findings with those in non-inflamed gingiva (Non), radicular cyst (RC), and oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). MATERIALS AND

methodsParaffin-embedded surgical biopsy specimens were sliced, DNA was extracted, bisulfite treatment was applied, and methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction was performed. Immunohistochemistry was performed to observe the relative expression patterns of these genes.

resultsE-cadherin was hypermethylated in OLP (p < 0.01), SCC (p < 0.01), and RC (p < 0.05), when compared with Non; DNA hypermethylation was confirmed in OLP and SCC when compared to Non and RC. Hypermethylation of p16

conclusionDNA methylation levels of E-cadherin and p16
