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

Objective: The aim of this study was to verify TCGA subtypes in endometrial clear cell carcinoma (ECCC) and determine their clinical and molecular characteristics. Methods: We summarized and compared the clinical features of 28 clear cell carcinoma and 112 endometrioid carcinoma patients. Of the 28 ECCCs, 19 underwent TCGA classification, and other markers (ER, PR, ARID1A, ARIB1B, TAF1, and HER-2) were also detected by IHC, and outcomes were assessed. Results: Compared to endometrioid carcinoma, ECCC had an older age of onset (median age, 64.5 years, range 31-81 years), higher rate of myometrial invasion (42.8% vs. 21.5% in endometrioid carcinoma), LVSI (33% vs. 16%), and more advanced FIGO stage. Among the ECCCs, LVSI was a poor prognostic factor. TCGA classification was performed for 19 ECCCs: two POLEmut cases (10.5%), three MMRd (15.8%), 11 p53wt (57.9%), and three p53abn (15.8%). Of the 19 ECCCs, six (31.6%) showed HER-2 positive expression, and eight (42.1%) had TAF1 expression loss. ECCCs possessed HER-2 and TAF1 expression had worse outcomes. Conclusion: Our study summarized the clinical features of ECCC. The outcomes of patients with ECCC with TCGA subtypes differed from those of patients with endometrioid carcinoma. HER-2 and TAF1 may be new prognostic factors.
