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

purposeGlioma is a primary intracranial malignant tumor with high recurrence and mortality rates. It is very important to study the prognostic factors. KLF11 can function as an oncogene or a tumor suppressor, depending on the tumor and tissue types and the cancer stage. In this study, we aimed to determine whether KLF11 expression is related to the overall survival of glioma patients. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe investigated KLF11 expression in 116 glioma patients with different grades using Western blot and immunohistochemistry assay. We analyzed the patients with different glioma grades and KLF11 expression levels by Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Independent prognostic factors for poor overall survival were identified by univariate and multivariate analyses.

resultsThere were 37 patients in KLF11 low expression group and 79 patients in high expression group. There was no difference in gender, age, tumor diameter or tumor location between two groups. The patients in KLF11 high expression group had higher ECOG score (

conclusionKLF11 expression was increased in glioma tissues, and high KLF11 expression was associated with poor prognosis. KLF11 expression was an independent prognostic factor for poor survival in glioma patients. KLF11 may serve as a novel prognostic marker for gliomas and as a novel treatment target.
