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

backgroundTo assess the association between molecular markers and histopathological parameters in endometrial carcinoma (EC).

methodsThis retrospective study was conducted at the Max Institute of Cancer Care, New Delhi, India, from January 2022 to May 2025, and included a total of 160 patients with EC. Molecular subtypes were determined using immunohistochemistry (IHC) for p53, mismatch repair (MMR) proteins, and POLE mutation status, and classified as "no specific molecular profile" (NSMP) where applicable. Histopathological variables, including histological subtype, tumor grade, stage, depth of myometrial invasion, lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI), and lymph node status, were evaluated for association with molecular subtypes using chi-square statistical analysis.

resultsSignificant associations were observed between molecular subtypes and both histological type and LVSI. A strong correlation was noted between histopathological parameters and tumor grade (p<0.0001). However, no significant association was found between molecular subtypes and disease stage (p=0.136). POLE mutations were rare, identified in only 0.6% of cases.

conclusionsImmunohistochemical markers based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) classification show a strong correlation with established histopathological risk factors. Integrating molecular profiling into the routine diagnostic workup may improve prognostication and support personalized treatment strategies in EC.
