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

UbiquitinC-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) is a cysteine hydrolase. It functions as a ubiquitin hydrolase, stabilizes the ubiquitin monomer, and affects cell division through cell cycle protein deubiquitination. Abnormal UCH-L1 expression is closely related to the occurrence and development of several tumors. Although some in vitro studies have demonstrated the significance of UCH-L1 in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), only few clinical studies have focused on the UCH-L1 expression in NSCLC, and the results are controversial and non-uniform. We investigated the UCH-L1 expression in 401 cases of surgically resected NSCLC, including 286 cases of adenocarcinoma (ADC) and 65 cases of squamous cell carcinoma. The associations between the UCH-L1 expression and clinicopathological features, programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, and prognostic significance were analyzed. For NSCLC, the UCH-L1 expression is associated with sex, smoking history, tumor size (>3 cm), lymphocyte infiltration, advanced pathological stages, and shortened overall survival (OS; 89.72 vs. 114.55 months; P = 0.005), but not PD-L1 expression. The UCH-L1 expression in ADC is associated with advanced pathological stages, pleural invasion, and shortened OS (90.38 vs. 118.55 months; P = 0.010). Multivariate analysis confirmed that UCH-L1 expression was an independent poor prognostic factor for NSCLC (OS: hazard ratio [HR], 1.854; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.132-3.038; P = 0.014). Our results suggest that the UCH-L1 expression differs across tumors with different clinicopathological features, and it is related to poor prognosis.
