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

backgroundExpression of kallikrein-11 (KLK11) has been found to be related to the prognosis of various human cancer types but its physiological functions in the steps of breast cancer (BC) progression are still unknown. MATERIALS AND

methodsBC and adjacent normal breast tissue samples were collected from 28 patients. KLK11 expression levels were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction for each sample and associations with known prognostic features were statistically analyzed.

resultsAlthough there was slight up-regulation in tumor tissues overall, significant down-regulation of KLK11 expression in tumor tissue was observed in the elderly and in patients with perineural invasion. Furthermore, tumor size, grade, mitotic score, necrosis, calcification, lymphatic invasion, hormone receptor status and Ki67 expression were associated with altered KLK11 level.

conclusionChanges in expression levels of KLK11, associated with patient characteristics, might be used as complementary data in order to predict clinical outcome and prognosis in BC.
