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

BACKGROUND/

aimMetastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) plays a role in ATP-dependent nucleosome disruption activity and histone deacetylase activity and may indicate DNA methylation activity. MTA1 may also be involved in the progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). PATIENTS AND

methodsMTA1 immunoreactivity was analyzed using immunohistochemical (IHC) staining analysis in specimens from 281 OSCC patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to determine the prognostic value of MTA1 for overall survival.

resultsHigh MTA1 expression was significantly associated with female gender and lymph node metastasis. Multivariate analyses showed the independent prognostic role of high MTA1 expression in patients with OSCC of poorer mean survival.

conclusionMTA1 expression, detected by IHC staining, could be an independent prognostic marker for patients of OSCC.
