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

backgroundPLOD2 is overexpressed in diverse tumors and plays a vital role in tumorigenesis. However, the prognostic value of PLOD2 in cervical cancer (CESC) remains unclear.

methodsPLOD2 expression and CESC patients' survival data were collected from the Oncomine, GEPIA, UALCAN, and Kaplan-Meier Plotter databases; immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to validate the expression of PLOD2 in CESC; Gene Set Enrichment Analysis was performed using the STRING and DAVID databases; and the correlations between PLOD2 and cancer immune infiltrates were investigated using the TIMER and TISIDB databases.

resultsWe found that the expression level of PLOD2 was increased in various cancers, and meta-analysis in the Oncomine database revealed that PLOD2 was significantly upregulated in CESC compared to that in normal tissues (

conclusionPLOD2 is positively associated with poor prognosis and might be considered a novel diagnostic and prognostic marker for CESC patients.
