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

objectiveThis study aimed to identify the recurrence and survival rates according to the mismatch repair (MMR), p53, and L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) status in patients with advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer (EC) receiving systemic chemotherapy.

methodsThis single-center retrospective cohort study included chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced-stage (III/IV) or recurrent EC between January 2015 and June 2022 (n = 156), who were administered chemotherapy as adjuvant therapy or first-line palliative treatment. MMR and p53 status were assessed, and L1CAM was tested using immunohistochemistry in the p53-wild and MMR-proficient (p53wt/pMMR) group. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

resultsOf the 156 patients, 62 (39.7%), 53 (34.0%), and 41 (26.3%) had p53wt/pMMR, abnormal p53 (p53abn), and MMR-deficient (dMMR) tumors, respectively. PFS and OS were longest in dMMR, followed by p53wt/pMMR, and were the least in p53abn tumors (PFS: p = 0.0006, OS: p = 0.0013). After p53wt/pMMR was classified according to positive or negative L1CAM status, the L1CAM negative group exhibited significantly shorter survival rates than the L1CAM positive group (PFS: p = 0.0001, OS: p = 0.0027). p53abn tumors were independent prognostic factors for poor PFS (PFS: p = 0.039 on multivariable analysis).

conclusionIn chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced and recurrent EC, there was a better prognosis in the order of MMR-D, p53wt/pMMR, and p53abn tumors after chemotherapy. L1CAM status is useful as a new marker to stratify p53wt/pMMR in advanced and recurrent groups.
