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

p53-mutated endometrial carcinomas tend to recur and develop distant metastases. Therefore, the detection of new potential therapeutic targets such as HER2 is particularly interesting. In this retrospective study, which considered over 118 endometrial carcinomas, the p53 mutation was detected in 29.6% of cases. In these cases, the HER2 protein profile was studied via immunohistochemistry, and an overexpression of HER2 protein (++ or +++) was noted in 31.4%. The CISH technique was used in these cases to determine if gene amplification was present. In 18% of cases, the technique was not conclusive. Amplification of the HER2 gene was observed in 36.3% of cases and 36.3% of cases showed a polysomal-like aneusomy for centromere 17. Amplification was found in serous carcinomas, clear cell carcinomas and carcinosarcomas, highlighting the future potentiality of HER2-targeted therapies in these variants of aggressive carcinomas.
