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

aimEphB3 and dysadherin are involved in tumorigenesis and progression of many neoplasms. However, the roles of EphB3 and dysadherin in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC) remain to be revealed. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the expression of EphB3 and dysadherin, and investigate their clinicopathological significance in ECC.

methodsWe examined EphB3 and dysadherin expression in 100 ECC, 30 peritumoral tissues, 10 adenoma and 15 normal biliary tract tissues using EnVision immunohistochemistry. The relationship between EphB3 or dysadherin expression and clinicopathological features was evaluated using the

resultsWe found that EphB3 expression was significantly down-regulated and dysadherin expression was significantly up-regulated in ECC tissues compared with normal tissues (

conclusionEphB3 and dysadherin are involved in the carcinogenesis and progression of ECC, and ECC patients with negative EphB3 or positive dysadherin expression have a poor prognosis.
