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

With the aid of a newly developed target unmasking fluid (TUF), p53 overexpression was visualized by immunohistochemistry on recent and archival paraffin-embedded tissue samples of colon, stomach, and pancreas neoplasms. Using monoclonal anti-p53 antibody pAb1801 as well as polyclonal antiserum to p53 CM1, TUF-mediated immunohistochemistry was fully concordant for p53 overexpression in paraffin-embedded carcinoma samples compared with freshly frozen tissue from the same tumors. Thus, prognostic and diagnostic assessment of p53 overexpression in malignant tissue, routinely fixed in formalin and embedded in paraffin wax, by TUF-mediated immunohistochemistry with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies may be adopted as a new tool in diagnostic and research histopathology.
