Prognostic Value of Serum Soluble Klotho and Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 in Multiple Myeloma Patients.

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
Multiple myeloma is the plasma cell malignancy in which bone involvement is common. The Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23)/Klotho pathway plays a major role in mineral metabolism that FGF-23 is mineralization inhibitory. Klotho also has anti-apoptotic and anti-tumor effects by acting as a tumor suppressor gene. There is a negative correlation between serum FGF-23 and serum soluble Klotho (sKL) levels. As such, there can be considerable interest in investigating sKL and FGF-23 as a biomarker in patients with MM. We used an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to measure serum FGF-23 and sKL levels in 55 newly diagnosed MM patients and 23 healthy controls. We determined significantly high serum FGF-23 and low serum sKL levels in MM patients when compared to healthy controls. Serum sKL levels correlated negatively with a p53 positive mutation status, with high ISS, elevated lactate dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein, Beta-2 microglobulin levels. Serum FGF-23 levels are associated negatively with serum phosphorus and positively only light chains and p53 mutation. Patients with high serum FGF-23 levels had significantly shorter median overall survival than those with low serum FGF-23 levels (
