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

Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) display heterogeneous histology and often unpredictable clinical behavior. The Hippo signaling pathway has been implicated in tumorigenesis, but its role in TETs remains poorly characterized. We performed the first comprehensive immunohistochemical analysis of core and upstream Hippo pathway components-YAP1, active YAP (AYAP), TAZ, LATS1, MOB1A, MST1, SAV1, and TEAD4-in 77 TETs. Associations with clinicopathological parameters and survival were explored. We observed widespread expression of Hippo components in TETs with significant associations among molecules and differences in subcellular localization and expression in normal tissue. Early stage TETs showed higher nuclear YAP1 (
