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

Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide. Ceramide synthase 5 (CerS5) is a member of the CerS family. Emerging evidence has shown that overexpressed CerS5 is correlated with the poor prognosis of cancer patients. However, the role of CerS5 in gastric cancer remains unclear. The aim of this study is to delineate the relevance of CerS5 levels to gastric cancer. Methods: The expression level of CerS5 was determined by immunohistochemistry, and the survival data of gastric cancer patients were obtained by regular follow-up. The gene expression profile of Results: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining indicated that CerS5 is overexpressed in gastric cancer tissues and metastatic lymph nodes. The levels of CerS5 were correlated with tumor location and carbohydrate antigen 50 (CA50). Moreover, the increased Conclusions: CerS5 is universally overexpressed in gastric cancer tissues and is an independent factor of poor prognosis for gastric cancer patients.
