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

Ki-67 is a cell proliferation biomarker used to evaluate the proliferative activity of neoplasia cells. However, considering its functions on the cell cycle, the standard method seems to be an underused way of evaluating expression, since so far, its analytical validity of Ki-67 remains questionable for its use in personalised therapy. Improvements in the assessment of Ki-67 expression continue to be explored, and recently, a new approach that considers the heterogeneity or variability in staining intensity has emerged as a more improved way than the traditional method. In this review, we bring together what is available in the literature on the biological properties of the protein and highlight how this potential association is promising in the field of personalised medicine.
