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

backgroundRecent studies have shown that CD90 has an important role in cancer development. Moreover, CD90 is reportedly associated with cancer progression, metastasis, and poor prognosis. Thus, we performed this meta-analysis to investigate the prognostic and clinicopathological value of CD90 expression in patients with cancer.

methodsEligible studies were collected by searching PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane library. The pooled results were analyzed to reveal the association between CD90 expression and survival as well as the clinicopathological characteristics of cancer patients.

resultsCD90 overexpression was associated with poor survival in cancer patients [for overall survival, hazard ratio (HR): 2.56, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.42-4.62, P=0.002; for disease-free survival, HR: 1.88, 95% CI: 1.08-3.27, P=0.025] and was also significantly correlated with a larger tumor size [odds ratio (OR): 1.97, 95% CI: 1.01-3.85, P=0.048), higher tumor grade (OR: 2.72, 95% CI: 1.33-5.54, P=0.006), lymph node metastasis (OR: 3.66, 95% CI: 1.14-11.78, P=0.029), and higher tumor-node-metastasis stage (OR: 4.79, 95% CI: 2.28-10.04, P<0.001).

conclusionsCD90 overexpression could predict poor prognosis and may hence be a potential prognostic biomarker for cancer patients.
