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

LDLR-related protein 1B (LRP1B) is believed to internalize ligands through receptor-mediated endocytosis. Previous epigenetic and genetic studies have indicated that impaired LRP1B mRNA expression might be related to gastric carcinogenesis. However, expression and prognostic significance of LRP1B protein remain to be elucidated. This study aimed to unravel the clinicopathological characteristics of LRP1B protein expression in gastric cancer. Immunohistochemical staining with antibodies specific to LRP1B peptide, which has an EXXXLL motif-containing region in the C-terminal flexible loop for intracellular sorting, was performed with 100 gastric cancer tissue specimens. Out of 100 tissue specimens, 45 exhibited cytoplasmic localization of LRP1B immunoreactivity. This cytoplasmic localization of LRP1B was significantly higher (P = 0.044) in intestinal-type gastric cancer (25 of 44) than in diffuse-type gastric cancer (20 of 56). Notably, cytoplasmic LRP1B immunoreactivity was significantly associated with low clinicopathological stage and favorable prognosis of patients with diffuse-type gastric cancer (P = 0.014), but nor with intestinal-type gastric cancer (P = 0.994). Multivalent analysis revealed that cytoplasmic LRP1B immunoreactivity had an independent favorable prognostic value in diffuse-type gastric cancer (P = 0.046; hazard ratio 3.058, 95% confidence interval 1.022-9.149). In contrast, no significant relation of cytoplasmic LRP1B immunoreactivity to patients' prognosis was found in intestinal-type gastric cancer. Double immunocytochemical staining demonstrated that cytoplasmic LRP1B was co-localized with RAB11FIP1, which constituted the endocytic recycling compartments in diffuse-type gastric cancer cells. The findings of this study indicated that impaired endocytosis of the cytoplasmic domain of LRP1B, resulting in insufficient ligand internalization, is related to poor prognosis of patients with diffuse-type gastric cancer.
