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: Molecular classification of endometrial carcinoma (EC) has gained prominence. This study is a retrospective analysis exploring the value of molecular classification in clinical practice in a Chinese cohort. Methods: Ninety-seven patients with EC were enrolled in this study. Patient-derived EC samples were used for polymerase-ɛ exonuclease domain mutation (POLE edm) sequencing. The presence and defects of mismatch repair (MMR) proteins were identified using immunohistochemistry (IHC). Similarly, tumour protein 53 (p53) was identified using IHC. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was tested between groups using Kaplan-Meier curves with the Log rank test. Results: Distribution by molecular subtype was as follows: POLE edm (3 patients; 3.1%); MMR deficient (MMRd) (32 patients; 33%); abnormal p53 (p53abn) (49 patients; 50.5%) and wild-type p53 (p53wt) (13 patients; 13.4%). Actual RFS rates for the different molecular subtypes were as follows: POLE edm (100%); MMRd (93.5%); p53abn (77.8%) and p53wt (84.6%). Differences in morphology, myometrial invasion, cervical stromal invasion and lymphovascular space invasion among groups were not significant ( Conclusion: Our results suggest that cervical stromal invasion in EC may have no prognostic significance, the EC ProMisE classifier has no relationship with morphology and routine use of molecular classification is premature. The study was limited by a relatively small sample size and short follow-up duration, and further multicenter studies are warranted to validate these findings.
