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

Monoclonal antibody MR6 detects gp200-MR6, a molecule functionally associated with the interleukin 4 (IL- 4) receptor. Positive immunolabeling with MAb MR6 was obtained in 28/28 transitional cell carcinomas of the bladder, representing a range of different grades and stages of disease, as well as in all control non-neoplastic urothelia. The expression of mutant p53 protein and epidermal growth factor receptor was detected in 14/28 and 20/28 cases respectively. Proliferation indices, determined by Ki67 labeling, ranged from 5% to 95% among these tumours. The universal expression of gp200-MR6 in neoplastic and non-neoplastic urothelium has important implications for the possible use of IL-4 in tumour therapy and suggests that IL- 4 may play a role in differentiation and homeostasis of urothelium and other mucosal epithelia.
