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

TGCTs represent a model of curable disease afflicting especially young men. Defining tumor biological characteristics is crucial to increase current knowledge and tailor the best clinical management. Ki67, a potential prognostic marker, still exhibits heterogenous associations with patient outcomes, thus bringing the need of corroboration with larger cohorts in clinical practice. LSD1, an epigenetic enzyme, represents a future target for epigenetic drugs that may lower treatment-associated morbidity. This study aimed to assess Ki67/LSD1 immunoexpression across all TGCT histological subtypes and correlate it with clinicopathological features. Results were compared with an in silico analysis of the TCGA database. Immunohistochemistry for Ki67 and LSD1 was carried out in a cohort of 157 TGCT tumor samples and assessed using a digital pathology algorithm. LSD1 protein expression was explored in TGCT cell lines, including ATRA-differentiated clones. There was a significant positive correlation between Ki67 and LSD1 H-scores (r
