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

The expression of a number of proteins plays a major role in predicting recurrent laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the expression of 16 selected proteins as prognostic indicators for recurrent and non-recurrent LSCC. Samples from a total of 41 patients with LSCC were investigated by immunohistochemistry. Digital image analysis was performed, and various associated factors were calculated. Histoscore (H-score) and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to divide protein expression in high and low for predicting disease recurrence. Disease-free survival (DFS) curves, crude hazard ratios (HRs) and adjusted HRs were analyzed and compared. Significantly different H-scores were found between the recurrent and non-recurrent groups in terms of pRb and c-Met expression. pRb was expressed at high levels in recurrent LSCC, while c-Met was expressed at low levels. Patients with low pRb expression had a longer DFS than those with high pRb expression (log-rank χ
