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

Aim: Serum autoantibodies have been reported to react with tumor-associated antigens in various cancers. This study evaluated the diagnostic and prognostic significance of six autoantibody panels in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: In this study, 193 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and 78 healthy controls were enrolled. Serum antibodies were detected using originally developed enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to detect autoantibodies against the following tumor antigens: c-myc, p62, RalA, p53, Sui1, and NY-ESO-1. The positive rates of the six-autoantibody panel were compared with those of SCC antigen (SCC-Ag). The prognostic significance of these autoantibodies was also evaluated. Results: The overall positive rate was significantly higher in the six-autoantibody panel than in SCC-Ag (72% vs. 28%; Conclusion: The six-autoantibody panel was useful for detecting esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, particularly in stage 0/I; however, it showed limited prognostic significance.
