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

Neutrophils are conspicuous components of gastric cancer (GC) tumors, increasing with tumor progression and poor patient survival. However, the phenotype, regulation, function and clinical relevance of neutrophils in human GC are presently unknown. We used flow cytometry analyses to examine levels and phenotype of neutrophils in samples from 50 patients with GC. Kaplan-Meier plots for patient survival were performed using the log-rank test, and multivariate analysis of prognostic factors for patient survival was performed using the Cox proportional hazards model. Neutrophils were isolated, stimulated and/or cultured for regulation and function assays. We found that GC patients showed a significantly higher neutrophil infiltration in tumors, and that neutrophil infiltration was positively associated with tumor progression but negatively correlated with patient survival. Most tumor-infiltrating neutrophils showed an activated CD54
