Gallbladder cancer. A comparative study among clinicopathologic features, AgNORs, and DNA content analysis.

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.
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
A comparative study among clinicopathologic features, silver-stained nucleolar organizer region associated proteins (AgNORs), and DNA content analysis in 76 patients with gallbladder cancer was performed. The AgNOR count, AgNOR area, and the ration of AgNOR area to nuclear area were significantly higher in patients with a low grade of histological differentiation and deep invasion into the gallbladder wall. Moreover, these parameters were higher in cases with lymph node involvement and distant metastases. DNA ploidy pattern and clinicopathologic features showed to statistical significance. Our results demonstrate that AgNOR parameters are useful indicators to evaluate the malignant behavior of gallbladder cancer. Furthermore, the AgNOR count together with the depth of the neoplastic invasion and lymph node metastases proved to be independent prognostic factors for survival in patients with gallbladder cancer.
