Undetected αKlotho in serum is associated with the most aggressive phenotype of breast cancer.

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.
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
Klotho, a cellular anti-senescence protein, is related to antitumor actions, growth regulation, proliferation and invasiveness in several types of tumor, including breast cancer. The present study aimed to analyze the serum levels of αKlotho in patients with breast cancer according to histopathological and immunohistochemical variables. A total of 74 patients and 60 healthy controls were recruited. Peripheral blood samples were collected and serum levels were assessed by sandwich ELISA. Clinical and diagnostic data were obtained from medical records and databases of the Clinical Hospital of the Federal University of Uberlândia (Uberlândia, Brazil). The results indicated no difference in the levels of αKlotho between patients and controls (P=0.068); however, the number of patients with breast cancer with undetectable αKlotho was high (n=52). Thus, the variables that were associated with the lowest survival rates were analyzed, relating them to undetectable αKlotho. Among cases of metastatic tumors or tumors with poor differentiation, positive lymph node status and triple-negative status, patients with undetectable αKlotho predominated and had unfavorable overall survival. Due to the significant results obtained in triple-negative patients, an
