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

backgroundCCT6A promotes several carcinomas' growth and invasion in multiple ways, and it relates to CCNB1 and PLK1 through its interaction with CDC20 via protein-protein interaction bioinformatics. This study aimed to explore the intercorrelation among CCT6A, CDC20, CCNB1, and PLK1, and their association with tumor features and prognosis in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients.

methodsCCT6A, CDC20, CCNB1, and PLK1 expressions in 186 tumor and 30 non-tumor specimens from PTC patients were determined by immunohistochemical (IHC). Clinical features, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) were retrieved.

resultsCCT6A, CDC20, CCNB1, and PLK1 expressions were upregulated in tumor tissues compared with non-tumor tissues (all p < 0.001). CCT6A expression positively correlated with CDC20, CCNB1, and PLK1 expressions; besides, CDC20 expression positively associated with CCNB1 and PLK1 expressions, and CCNB1 expression was also positively related to PLK1 expression (all p < 0.05). Moreover, elevated tumor CCT6A expression was correlated with extrathyroidal invasion (p = 0.015), higher pT stage (p < 0.001), pN stage (p = 0.046), and pTNM stage (p = 0.042); while tumor CDC20, CCNB1, and PLK1 expressions only correlated with some of these indexes (most p < 0.05). Notably, CCT6A and CDC20 high expressions predicted worse DFS and OS (all p < 0.05); CCNB1 positive expression only predicted poor DFS (p = 0.044) but not OS (p = 0.152); however, PLK1 expression failed to predict these two indexes (both p > 0.05). After adjustment using multivariate Cox's regression, CCT6A expression (high vs. low) independently estimated shorter DFS (p = 0.010) and OS (p = 0.006).

conclusionCCT6A, CDC20, CCNB1, and PLK1 are intercorrelated, and they exhibit certain prognostic values in PTC patients.
