Clinicopathological features and immunophenotype of Silva pattern system in endocervical adenocarcinoma.
Article in International journal of experimental pathology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between Silva pattern system and clinicopathological features of endocervical adenocarcinoma. Moreover, it was to find molecular markers helpful for Silva classification, and thus we also explored the expression levels of invasion, adhesion and proliferation biomarkers in cases of Silva non-invasive and invasive types. The survival based on Silva pattern system was analysed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, Log-rank test and a COX risk proportionality model. Sixty samples were chosen to detect the MMP-2, MMP-9, u-PA, E-cadherin, β-catenin, EGF, TGF-α, HDGF, c-Met and RGN expression by immunohistochemistry. Multivariate analysis showed that pattern A/pattern B/pattern C Silva pattern system provided independent risk factors for prognosis. Our results found the levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 and u-PA were significantly higher in endocervical adenocarcinoma with destructive growth than in the nondestructive group. The levels of E-cadherin and β-catenin were significantly lower in endocervical adenocarcinoma with destructive growth than in the nondestructive group. The levels of EGF, TGF-α and HDGF were significantly higher in endocervical adenocarcinoma with destructive growth than in the nondestructive group. Compared with 'non-invasive/invasive Silva pattern', this study suggests 'pattern A/pattern B/pattern C Silva pattern' could be a better criteria for predicting the prognosis. Furthermore, the dual-marker combination of 'MMP-2 and u-PA' and 'E-cadherin and β-catenin' is very important in the diagnosis of Silva pattern classification.
