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

Summary Antibodies against Candida albicans antigenic determinants have been reported to cross-react with human tumour cells. We have found that two monoclonal antibodies, C6 and PA1OF, developed at our laboratory against C. albicans antigenic determinants, cross-react with human ovarian cancer on Western blots and immunohistochemistry. We have subsequently used one of them, PA10OF, to test by means of immunohistochemistry a series of 37 human ovarian carcinomas. Out of 37 tumours, 25 (67.6%) expressed the antigen recognized by PA1OF. The reactivity, however, was concentrated on the subgroup of particularly aggressive, invasive carcinomas in advanced stages of the disease (19 out of 24 positive), whereas the antigen was expressed significantly less (P=0.0007) in the subgroup of much less aggressive stage I tumours of low malignant potential, also called borderline carcinomas (2 out of 13 positive). This cross-reactivity between C. albicans and ovarian carcinoma seems to be attributable to a common antigenic determinant related to tumour aggressiveness.
