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

The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 receptor (TRPV1) is a calcium-sensitive membrane receptor activated by capsaicin and the endocannabinoid, anandamide (AEA). Once activated in vitro, endometrial cancer (EC) cell growth appears to be inhibited through increased apoptosis, but the mechanism remains unclear. Our aim was to investigate the expression and distribution of TRPV1 in normal and cancerous endometria and to determine the precise in vitro mechanism of decreased EC cellular growth. TRPV1 expression in patients with endometrial carcinoma (15 Type 1 EC, six Type 2 EC) and six normal patients (atrophic endometria) was assessed using quantitative RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Additionally, immunohistochemical staining for the proliferation marker Ki-67, the pro-apoptotic marker BAX and the anti-apoptotic marker Bcl-2 were explored. TRPV1 transcript (
