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: This study aimed to investigate the expression profile of TFE3 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and the clinicopathological features as well as prognosis of TFE3-positive RCC. Methods: Tissue sections from 796 patients with RCC were collected for immunohistochemical staining of TFE3. Molecular TFE3 rearrangement tests were also carried out on the TFE3-positive RCCs using fluorescence Results: The present study showed that 91 patients with RCC (91/796, 11.4%) were TFE3 positive expression but only 31 (31/91, 34.1%) of the patients were diagnosed with Xp11.2 translocation RCC. Further, it was found that the patients with TFE3-positive RCCs were more likely to develop lymph node and distant metastasis at diagnosis as well as presented a significantly higher WHO/ISUP nuclear grade and AJCC stage as compared with patients with TFE3-negative RCCs ( Conclusion: This study found that nuclear TFE3 expression is not specific to the Xp11.2 translocation RCC. Moreover, the positive TFE3 expression is associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in patients with RCC irrespective of the presence of TFE3 translocation.
