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

Human bladder cancer (BCa) exhibits morphological and molecular heterogeneity which can complicate treatment. Morphologically, more than 90% of BCa is classified as urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC). Among other histological variants, UCC with squamous differentiation (SqD) shows a worse prognosis than pure UCC. In addition, basal-squamous BCa is enriched for SqD, and these tumors have a poor prognosis. Therefore, it is critical to elucidate the mechanisms to drive the basal-squamous phenotype of human BCa. Laminin-332 is a major glycoprotein of the epithelial basement membrane. It is well known that laminin-332 is a favorable target for extracellular matrix proteases such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in various diseases. Accumulating evidence indicates the significant role of laminin-332 in tumorigenesis. Here, we analyzed the expression of laminin-332 genes (
