Expression of periostin according to endometrial cancer grade.
Article in Oncology letters, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
While various molecular profiling methods have been described for the early diagnosis and prognostic process of endometrial cancer, the most common gynaecological cancer, the data obtained remain insufficient. The present study aimed to investigate the protein and gene expression of periostin and its role as a new biomarker in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of endometrial cancer. A total of 15 patients diagnosed with endometrial cancer at the Department of Pathology, Zeynep Kamil Training and Research Hospital (Istanbul, Turkey) and 15 patients who were operated on for non-tumour-related reasons, between December 2019 and May 2020, were included in the study. The cases diagnosed with endometrial cancer were divided into three groups: International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics grades I, II and III. Pathology tumour blocks were selected for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PCR studies in which periostin gene expression and protein levels were measured, respectively. A significant increase in periostin gene expression was observed in the endometrial cancer samples compared with that in the controls (3.40±0.66 vs. 2.23±0.47). The protein level of periostin in the tissues was found to be higher in the endometrial cancer samples than that in the control group (1.59±0.31 vs. 0.94±0.22). The levels of periostin protein and gene expression detected in the endometrial cancer samples increased as the grade increased. To the best of our knowledge, the current study is the first to determine the levels of periostin protein and gene expression in endometrial cancer. The results suggested that periostin may be used as a biomarker in the determination of higher histological grade in endometrial cancer.
