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

Background: Clinical outcome after surgery of breast cancer needs more prognostic markers to predict currently. Cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47), due to its overexpression in various tumors and ability to inhibit phagocytosis, has been identified as a new immune checkpoint. Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) is a protein involved in the immunomodulatory activities of the tumor microenvironment (TME) by maintaining the pH through aerobic glycolysis. Methods: We explored the expression of CD47 and MCT1 in breast invasive ductal carcinoma specimens to determine their association with prognosis. A total of 137 breast invasive ductal carcinoma tissues were collected for CD47 and MCT1 immunohistochemical staining. Results: Statistically analyzed, our study first indicated that in both univariate and multivariate analyses, the coexpression of CD47 and MCT1 was an independent prognostic factor for a poor 10-year overall survival rate (10-OS) and 10-year progression-free survival rate (10-DFS) (P<0.05). In addition, the combined high expression of these two markers also led to worse OS and PFS rates in the TNM (II + III), histologic grade (I + II), HER2 overexpression and basal-like subgroups. High expression of CD47 and MCT1 and combined high expression of CD47 and MCT1 were associated with clinicopathological parameters, such as histological grade, TNM stage, death status, and recurrence status in breast cancer patients. However, in the multivariate survival analysis, high expression of CD47 alone was not an independent prognostic factor for the 10-OS or the 10-DFS (P=0.104; P=0.153), and high expression of MCT1 alone was not an independent predictor for a poor 10-DFS (P=0.177) either. Conclusions: The coexpression of CD47 and MCT1 can serve as a prognostic biomarker leading to poor survival and an increased risk for recurrence, and this novel information could help guide the development of adjuvant therapy for breast cancer.
