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

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is a highly heterogeneous disease with variable histological appearance, biological features, clinical outcomes, and treatment responses. The number of BC cases in Saudi Arabia has more than tripled during the last 17 years to constitute 30% of all cancer cases in women. Therefore, greater efforts are needed to evaluate prognostic factors for BC in Saudi Arabia to improve prognostication and provide more personalized therapy. Recently, fragile X mental retardation syndrome-related protein 1 (FXR1) was identified as a novel biomarker that contributes to oncogenesis; however, its role in BC has not been well studied. This study aims to evaluate the clinicopathological significance of FXR1 in women with primary BC. Methods: The protein levels of FXR1 in BC tissue samples (n=100) were determined immunohistochemically. The associations between FXR1 levels and clinicopathological parameters and outcomes were evaluated, and significant associations were validated by assessing Results: High protein levels of Conclusions: This study revealed that FXR1 is a prognostic factor for poor prognosis in women with BC. Further functional studies are needed to confirm its role in aggressive BC and its value as a therapeutic target.
