Tissue Expression of Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin and Kidney Injury Molecule-1 in Breast Cancers.
Article in European journal of breast health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Objective: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has important roles in immunity, cell proliferation, and carcinogenesis. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein also known as hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 and T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin, has restricted expression in immune cells and healthy epithelial cells, but it is up-regulated in several human cancers. The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic values of NGAL and KIM-1 expression in tumor cells and to detect the presence of NGAL-positive neutrophils (PNL) in the tumor microenvironment. Materials and Methods: The expression of NGAL and KIM-1 protein were assessed by immunohistochemical staining in tissue specimens from 412 primary breast cancer cases. Results: In this series, the mean age of the patients was 55.6±12.4 years. In 218 (52.9%) cases, there was NGAL expression in tumor cells. In 104 (25.2%) cases there was KIM-1 expression in tumor cells. NGAL-positive inflammatory cells were seen in tumors of 45 (10.9%) cases. There was no significant relationship between NGAL-positive PNL presence in the tumor microenvironment and other clinicopathological features. However, there was a significant association between the presence of Conclusion: This study has demonstrated positivity of NGAL and KIM-1 in breast cancer cells. Considering the development of anti-KIM-1 therapies, the presence of KIM-1 expression may be a new treatment option in breast cancer, especially in
