Expression of Foxp3 in Fibromas and Fibrosarcomas of Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue in Dogs.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimFoxp3 is a transcription factor responsible for the formation of T regulatory lymphocytes. Foxp3 expression can be associated with either neoplastic progression or regression. The aim of the study was to evaluate Foxp3 expression in soft tissue tumours (fibromas and fibrosarcomas) of skin and subcutaneous tissue in dogs and to describe its relationship with tumour malignancy grade. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study was conducted on 71 skin and subcutaneous tumours including 31 fibromas and 40 fibrosarcomas. The samples underwent histological and immunohistochemical evaluation using anti-Foxp3, anti-Ki, and vimentin antibodies.
resultsCytoplasmic expression of Foxp3 protein in the cutaneous and subcutaneous fibrosarcomas in dogs was confirmed. Moreover, a positive relationship between the expression of Foxp3 and tumour malignancy grade and between Foxp3 and Ki-67 expression was noted.
conclusionA positive correlation between the Foxp3 expression intensity and malignancy grade suggests a significant role of Foxp3 in the carcinogenesis of skin and subcutaneous fibrosarcomas in dogs. Increased expression of Foxp3 may have a positive effect on the progression of cancer.
