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

Objectives: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a typical gynecological malignant tumor that occurs more frequently every year. Obesity is a significant contributor to the development of EC and its prognosis. Lipid metabolism and malignant tumors have a long history of association. Elevated cholesterol levels are made possible by adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette protein A1 (ABCA1) deficiency, which eventually promotes cancer cell survival. The aim of this study was to examine at the ABCA1 gene expression levels in EC patients. The relationship between ABCA1 and the occurrence, progression, and prognosis of EC is discussed in this article as a potential mechanism. Materials and Methods: The samples of 45 endometrial adenocarcinoma patients were retrospectively included in this study and they were further divided into Grade 1 (15), Grade 2 (15), Grade 3 (15) tumors, control group. Twenty-nine endometrial tissues without a confirmed diagnosis of endometrial cancer made up the control group. ABCA1 gene expression was examined using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results: According to the results, the gene expressions of the patient group were higher than the control group When each Grade was compared with the control group, statistically significant results were obtained. After analyzing the data, it was found that the patient group was generally higher than the control group (p < 0.05) and there were differences in the grades of the patient group (p < 0.05). When the ABCA1 expressions of the grade groups and control groups were compared separately, a difference was found between Grade 1, Grade 2 and Grade 3 and the control group (p= 0.0001). Conclusion: According to the findings of our study, a key component in the growth of EC tumors is the increase in cholesterol production caused by a reduction in ABCA1.
