Expression Patterns of Cytokeratins (CK7, CK20, CK19, CK AE1/AE3) in Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia Coexisting with Endometrial Cancer.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Few studies have evaluated cytokeratin's (CK) staining patterns in atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) coexisting with early-stage endometrial cancer (EC). We aimed to assess the staining patterns of selected CKs (CK7, CK19, CK20, CK AE1/AE3) in 74 patients with coexisting AEH and EC by independently analyzing both morphological variables. Specimens were collected from women with AEH and EC who underwent surgical interventions between 2012 and 2019 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Vilnius University Hospital "Santaros Klinikos" in Vilnius, Lithuania. Immunostaining was also qualitatively classified as being heterogeneous or intense. The results revealed heterogeneous CK7 expression in all AEH cases and intense staining in 95.95% cases of AEH. The heterogeneous expression of CK7 was detected in all EC specimens. Intense CK7 expression was observed in 95.09% cases of EC G1 and in all G2 ECs. Heterogenous CK19 expression was present in all AEH specimens with intense staining in 92.42% of cases. Heterogeneous CK19 expression was observed in all EC samples with intense expression in 86.27% cases of EC G1 and 100% cases of EC G2. Interestingly, a significant relationship was found when comparing the heterogeneous expression of CK19 between AEH and well-differentiated EC. A significant difference was reported in the intense expression of CK AE1/AE3 (
