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

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality among men. Gene expression analysis has been crucial in understanding tumor biology and providing disease progression markers. Cell surface glycoproteins and those in the extracellular matrix play significant roles in the PCa microenvironment by promoting migration, invasion, and metastasis. The molecular and histopathological heterogeneity of prostate tumors necessitates a new marker discovery to better stratify patients at risk for poor prognosis. In this study, our objectives were to investigate and characterize the localization and expression of SLIT/ROBO in PCa samples from transgenic mice and human tumor samples, aiming to identify novel prognostic markers and potential therapeutic targets. We conducted histopathological, immunohistochemical, and bioinformatics analyses on prostate tumors from two
