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

Desmoplastic reaction (DR) and inflammation are significant pathological manifestations of tumorigenesis in several cancers. However, the correlation between these stromal reactions and cervical adenocarcinoma has been poorly documented. This investigation elucidated whether DR is a prognostic indicator in early cervical adenocarcinoma patients. Fifty-nine patients with early stage cervical adenocarcinoma (stages I/II) were included in the study. DR was divided into three groups, mature, intermediate, and immature, based on the presence of myxoid stroma and hyalinized keloid-like collagen. Inflammatory cell responses were classified as mild, moderate, and severe. Those stromal reactions were separately evaluated in the invasion front stroma and intratumoral stroma. In both the intratumor and invasion front stroma, intermediate/immature DR was correlated with tumor size, T stage, N stage, lymphovascular invasion, and parametrial infiltration (p < 0.001 to p < 0.05). In addition, in the intratumoral stroma, intermediate/immature DR led to short relapse-free survival and overall survival (p < 0.001). In the invasion front stroma, inflammatory cell responses were associated with DR immaturity and FIGO stage (p < 0.01). These results suggest that the classification of DR maturity is a potential prognostic biomarker in early stage cervical adenocarcinoma patients. DR can be evaluated by routine H&E staining without immunohistochemistry, making it convenient and economical in clinical practice.
