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

objectivesTo evaluate immunohistochemical expression of PD-L1 in cases of gastric adenocarcinoma. To correlate PD-L1 immuno-histochemical expression with other available clinico-pathological parameters such as age, sex, grade, stage, lymph node (L.N) metastasis and others. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe present retrospective study retrieved the data and archived paraffin blocks of 60 cases of Gastric carcinoma. Immunohistochemical evaluation was done to assess the expressions of PD-L1 in the tumor cells (TC), tumor infiltrated lymphocytes (TILs) and combined positive score (CPS).

resultsTC PD-L1 expression was detected in 56.7% of cases, TILs PD-L1 expression was detected in 53.3 % of cases and CPS PD-L1 expression was detected in 63.3% of case, with no statistically significant correlation with clinico-pathological parameters except TILs PD-L1 expression showed statistically significant correlation with positive TILs (P value ˂0.019).

conclusionOur findings supported the expression of PD-L1 by TC, TILs, and CPS in gastric cancer, with increased expression in a subpopulation of TILs rich in PD-L1 identifying them as potential targets for PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.
