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

Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare ocular malignancy which originates in the uveal tract, and often gives rise to metastases. Potential targets for immune checkpoint inhibition are lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG3) and its ligands. We set out to analyse the distribution of these molecules in UM. The expression of mRNA was determined using an Illumina array in 64 primary UM from Leiden. The T lymphocyte fraction was determined by digital droplet PCR. In a second cohort of 15 cases from Leiden, mRNA expression was studied by Fluidigm qPCR, while a third cohort consisted of 80 UM from TCGA. In the first Leiden cohort,
