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

The survivin protein contributes to the development and progression of tumors. Protein expression and mRNA levels correlate with clinicopathological parameters and survival of cancer patients. Our purpose was to evaluate whether circulating survivin levels have any diagnostic or predictive value in lung cancer. 118 patients with advanced stage lung cancer participated in our study. 53 suffered from adenocarcinoma (ADC), 33 from squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC), and 32 from small cell lung cancer (SCLC). We also enrolled 21 control subjects. Blood samples were collected before and after two cycles of chemotherapy. We measured survivin concentrations with ELISA. Non-parametric tests were used for analysis. We did not find significant difference in survivin levels between patients and control subjects (17.19/0-829.74/vs. 49.13/0-165.92/pg/ml;
