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 aim of the present study was to compare the immunohistochemical expression of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) between the most common histological types of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and to determine whether a correlation between GLUT1 expression and nuclear grade or tumor size exists. A total of 19 RCC samples were selected for the study, consisting of 8 clear cell (cc)RCC and 11 non-ccRCC tissues. Immunohistochemistry for GLUT1 was performed on formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded sections using GLUT1 antibodies. All data analyses were performed using the MedCalc software. There was a higher immunohistochemical expression of GLUT1 in the ccRCC group compared with the non-cc group, but there was no difference in GLUT1 expression between groups of RCCs with differing nuclear grades. No significant correlation between GLUT1 expression and tumor size was found. The higher immunohistochemical expression of GLUT1 in ccRCC may be a contributing factor to the clinical characteristics and behavior of that group of carcinomas. These results suggest that GLUT1 expression cannot be used as a prognostic factor for RCC, but it may be used as a predictive factor in the future.
