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

backgroundMounting evidence underline the relevance of macromolecular complexes in cancer. Integrins frequently recruit ion channels and transporters within complexes which behave as signaling hubs. A complex composed by β1 integrin, hERG1 K

methodsWe analyzed the expression and impact on outcome of the genes encoding the four proteins forming the NHE1/hERG1/β1/nNa

resultsThe expression of KCNH2 and SCN5A was significantly correlated in primary BCa as occurs in the heart, although with a broader distribution, forming a functional network which also included ITGB1 and SLC9A1. The co-expression proteins emerged from the immunohistochemistry analysis. Interestingly, hERG1, nNav1.5 and the hERG1/β1 integrin complex associated with several clinical features, including molecular subtype and hormone receptor status. Moreover, hERG1 and the combination of hERG1 and nNav1.5 had impact on prognosis, contributing to identifying a group of patients with worse prognosis.
