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

Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the uterine cervix is less characterized than neuroendocrine neoplasms of other sites such as of the digestive system and the lung. Special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2) recently emerged as a marker of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors of the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Among NECs, SATB2 is more frequently expressed in cutaneous Merkel cell carcinoma than in NEC of other anatomical sites. In our study, we performed an immunohistochemical study of SATB2 in 16 NECs of the uterine cervix, where the expression of these markers is still undefined. SATB2 was expressed in 12/16 cervical NECs (75%), with 7/16 cases (44%) showing SATB2 positivity in ≥ 50% of cells. In 7 cervical NECs associated with a non-neuroendocrine component, the expression of SATB2 was restricted to the neuroendocrine component. SATB2 was positive in all cases that expressed CDX2 (n = 7) and TTF1 (n = 5), with no evident association with p16 and p53. Our study demonstrated that SATB2 is often expressed in NECs of the uterine cervix. This information should be taken into account when assessing the origin of a NEC.
