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

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) expression in ovarian cancer and evaluate its correlation with patient survival outcomes. Methods: A total of 260 ovarian cancer patients diagnosed between 2017 and 2019 were enrolled. Immunohistochemistry was performed to assess HSP60 expression in tumor tissues. Patients were categorized into high- or low-HSP60 expression groups based on immunohistochemical staining intensity. The correlation between HSP60 expression status and the clinicopathological features of ovarian cancer patients was analyzed. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Cox regression models were utilized to evaluate overall survival and disease-free survival. Results: HSP60 expression was significantly higher in ovarian cancer tissues compared to normal ovarian tissues. High HSP60 expression was associated with larger tumor size, advanced FIGO stage, and increased lymph node metastasis. Patients with high HSP60 expression exhibited significantly shorter overall survival and disease-free survival than those with low expression. Multivariate Cox analysis identified HSP60 as an independent prognostic factor for both overall survival and disease-free survival. Conclusion: High HSP60 expression is associated with poor prognosis and aggressive tumor characteristics in ovarian cancer. HSP60 may serve as a valuable biomarker for prognosis and a potential therapeutic target. Further randomized clinical trials are warranted to explore its role in ovarian cancer progression and treatment strategies.
