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

Cervical cancer (CC) represents a major gynecologic health problem. Respecting the role of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PDL-1) in cancer prognosis, we investigated its relationship with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) invasion, metastasis and prognosis. A total of 184 CSCC patients were retrospectively selected, with normal paracarcinoma tissues as the Control group. PDL-1 expression was assessed, and its relationship with CSCC prognosis and clinical value on predicting CSCC invasion/metastasis and poor prognosis were determined. PDL-1 was up-regulated in CSCC. CSCC patients at International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage II/III, and with lymph node metastasis (LNM), parauterine/vascular infiltration, and history of sexually transmitted diseases exhibited up-regulated PDL-1. The areas under the curve of PDL-1 on predicting the invasion and metastasis/poor prognosis of CSCC patients were 0.930 (95%Cl: 0.883-0.962)/0.935 (95%Cl: 0.886-0.967), with cut-off values of 23.27/24.86 (86.76%/80.95% sensitivity, 95.69%/92.68% specificity). The CSCC patients with highly-expressed PDL-1 showed increased cumulative incidence of poor prognosis. Additionally, occurence of vascular infiltration/LNM, and up-regulated PDL-1 were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in CSCC patients. Briefly, PDL-1 expression rised in CSCC. High PDL-1 expression might promote tumor infiltration and LNM, while close monitoring of its expression contributed to evaluating prognosis of CSCC patients.
