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

backgroundEGFR, ERBB2, ERBB3, and ERBB4 are growth receptors of the ERBB family implicated in the development of epithelial cancers. Studies have suggested a role for EGFR and ERBB3 in the development of prostate cancer (PC), while the involvement of ERBB2 and ERBB4 remains unclear. In this study, we evaluated the expression of all members of the ERBB family in PC tissue from a large cohort and determined their contribution, alone or in combination, as prognostic markers.

methodsUsing immunofluorescence coupled with digital image analyses, we quantified the expression of EGFR, ERBB2, ERBB3, and ERBB4 on radical prostatectomy specimens (

conclusionsOur study revealed that specific protein expression patterns of ERBB family members are associated with an increased risk of PC progression and mortality.
