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

backgroundThis study aims to investigate the level of cAMP response element-binding protein 1 (phospho S133) (p-CREB1) protein in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and evaluates its prognosis significance.

methodsImmunohistochemistry (IHC) method was performed to detect p-CREB1 staining in 233 ccRCC patients. Three or more high-power fields per tissue section were equally captured by a Leica DMRXA microphotographic system, and average staining intensity (optical density, OD) was analyzed by Leica Qwin Standard V2.6 system. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional regression model was performed to assess the correlation of p-CREB1 staining and clinical outcomes.

resultsIHC proved that the level of p-CREB1 protein was significantly higher in tumor tissues than in adjacent normal tissues, and gradually increased from normal to tumor sections. On the basis of the receiver operating characteristic curve, patients were divided into low p-CREB1 staining (OD ≤0.28) and high p-CREB1 staining subgroup (OD >0.28) according to p-CREB1 protein staining intensity of tumor cells. Multivariate analyses showed that high p-CREB1staining was an independent risk factor for cancer-specific free survival, overall survival and progression-free survival.

conclusionsp-CREB1 protein is an independent prognostic biomarker for ccRCC patients.
