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

In order to assess Stathmin as an immunohistochemical (IHC) indicator of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway activity in HPV-negative head & neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), we compared Stathmin IHC to expression of other pathway components. We also evaluated the relationship between Stathmin IHC and the mutational status of four key pathway genes. Finally, we ascertained whether Stathmin IHC correlates with tumor grade or primary site. Correlation exists between high Stathmin expression and high pAKT1 expression, indicating a role for Stathmin IHC as a marker of pathway activity. Our analysis did not show correlation between Stathmin IHC and mutation of the four genes evaluated. We also observed an association between high Stathmin expression and oropharyngeal primary site. Our results suggest utility of Stathmin IHC as an indicator of PI3K pathway activity, and thereby demonstrate potential relevance of Stathmin IHC in the context of HNSCC.
