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

According to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network clinical practice guidelines of cervical cancer, concurrent chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy is suggested for patients who receive radical hysterectomy and have intermediate- and high-risk cervical cancer. However, adjuvant chemotherapy has been increasingly chosen given the adverse events associated with chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy and the increase in evidence regarding the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy. Given that adjuvant chemotherapy is not a standard treatment at present, if recurrence after adjuvant chemotherapy could be predicted, it would assist the decision of gynecological oncologists selecting which adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy or radiation therapy) to use. Cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1-like protein (CLPTM1L; also known as cisplatin resistance-related protein 9) is associated with apoptotic mechanisms and is related to the proliferation of the tumor cells and resistance against chemotherapy. In the present study, the association between CLPTM1L expression and recurrence of intermediate- and high-risk stage IB-IIB cervical cancer in patients undergoing radical hysterectomy followed by treatment with cisplatin and paclitaxel (TP) as adjuvant chemotherapy was determined. Patients were divided into two groups: Recurrence group and no-recurrence group. CLPTM1L expression was examined using immunohistochemistry in paraffin-embedded sections using weighted scores. Regarding the characteristics of the patients, a histology of non-squamous cell carcinoma, lymph node metastasis and parametrium invasion were more common in the recurrence group compared with the non-recurrence group. In the recurrence group, CLPTM1L expression was significantly higher than that in the no-recurrence group. Next, patients were divided into low and high-expression groups based on the weighted score with a cut-off value of 6. In the high expression group, patients exhibited a higher rate of recurrence (37.5 vs. 5.1%) and had worse overall survival. Multivariate analysis revealed that high CLPTM1L expression was independently related to recurrence. In
