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

Protein kinase (PK) N1, also called PKC-related protein 1, participates in the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of various malignant tumors. However, the role of PKN1 in liver cancer remains to be elucidated. The present study investigated the expression of PKN1 using immunohistochemistry in surgical specimens from 36 patients and analyzed the correlation with VEGF, microvascular density (MVD), cell proliferation index (Ki67) and clinicopathological parameters. PKN1 was highly expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and was positively correlated with histological grading of HCC, Ki67 expression and MVD. PKN1 expression in moderately and poorly differentiated HCC was significantly higher compared with highly differentiated HCC. Expression of PKN1 was positively correlated with Ki67 and MVD, and Ki67 expression was positively correlated with MVD. The effects of PKN1 on proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of liver cancer cells were detected
