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

backgroundFXYD3 is a Na/K-ATPase modulator which is upregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), but its prognostic role is unknown. This study evaluated FXYD3 expression in chemo-naive patients with surgically-resected PDAC at a single centre (1993-2014).

methodFXYD3 expression was assessed in tumour specimens using immunohistochemistry.

results145 of 180 PDAC tumour specimens were FXYD3-immunopositive (80.5%). There was no difference in median overall survival between the FXYD3 negative (27.60 months) and positive groups (25.00 months) (log-rank p = 0.9718). FXYD3 expression correlated positively with late-stage disease (OR 3.041, 95% CI 1.190-7.455, p = 0.0175). There was no significant association with T stage, positive lymph nodes, perineural invasion, lymphovascular invasion or histological grade.

conclusionImmunohistochemical FXYD3 expression does not predict survival in chemo-naive PDAC patients, but is associated with late-stage disease. The high rate of FXYD3 overexpression warrants therapeutic evaluation.
