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

Survival rates from pancreatic cancer have remained stagnant for decades due to the heterogenic nature of the disease. This study aimed to find a new advanced biomarker and evaluate its clinical capabilities, thus enabling more individualised pancreatic cancer management. Between 2013 and 2020, 267 patients were included in the study. Surgically collected pancreatic tissue samples were analysed via high-definition mass spectrometry. Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6) was discovered as a possible promising pancreatic cancer biomarker. The predominance of CEACAM6 to pancreatic cancer was validated using antibodies in tissue samples. CEACAM6, carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) blood serum concentrations were evaluated for clinical evaluation and comparison. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were used to evaluate disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Poorer overall survival was significantly dependent on increased CEACAM6 blood serum concentrations (17.0 vs. 12.6 months,
