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

Background: MDM2 protein regulates p53 protein activity; however, the prognostic impact of MDM2 expression in primary lung cancer on patient prognoses is unknown. This study investigated the prognostic implications of MDM2 protein expression among patients with epidermal growth factor receptor mutant ( Methods: Immunohistochemical analysis was conducted to determine the MDM2 expression of pN1-N2 Results: MDM2 protein expression was positive in 56 patients (45.2%) with Conclusions: MDM2 protein expression is a prognostic predictor of RFS and OS in patients with pN1-N2 Ex21 lung cancer after curative surgery. MDM2 can be a novel biomarker for predicting postoperative prognosis and distant metastasis, especially in the central nervous system.
