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

Objective: To evaluate whether p53, cyclin A and ki67 immunohistochemical (IHC) assay can be used as predictors for Wilms' tumor (WT) unfavorable outcomes. Methods: It is a non-concurrent cohort study including patients who underwent nephrectomy for WT from January 2000 to December 2015 in a tertiary referral center. Over a 5- year follow-up, unfavorable events, including relapse and cancer-specific mortality (CSM), were recorded. P53, cyclin A, and ki67 IHC assay were carried out for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded WT samples. Results: After excluding those who did not meet the inclusion criteria, 75 patients were enrolled. Of the patients, 15/75 (20%) experienced WT relapse while 11/75 (14.6%) died of WT over five years. Unfavorable histology (UFH), including prominent blastemal components and anaplasia, was found in 15/75 (20%) children.Cyclin A immunopositivity was associated with high rates of relapse and CSM. P53 and ki67 positive IHC assay did not show any statistically significant association with unfavorable outcomes. Other risk factors e.g. advanced staging, UFH, extracapsular extension, tumor rupture, lymphadenopathy, and venous thrombosis were not associated with poor prognosis. However, the presence of residual tumors was accompanied by lower survival rates. Conclusion: Cyclin A IHC assay can be used as a predictor of WT recurrence and CSM. Further studies with prospective patterns and a larger sample size are needed.
