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

Various aspects of the progression and prognosis of colorectal carcinoma have been investigated in numerous publications during recent years. An exact macroscopic and microscopic examination is still of basic importance but different factors of the molecular pathogenesis of colorectal carcinoma could be described by immunohistochemistry and molecular biology. Furthermore, they have been evaluated regarding their importance for the course of disease and prognosis and in particular, the different pathways of carcinogenesis and microsatellite instability were included. The detection of micrometastasis was investigated applying mostly molecular genetic methods. Numerous oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes and regulators of the cell cycle, markers of proliferation and apoptosis, cell adhesion antigens and angiogenetic factors were characterized with regard to their prognostic potential. In the future, so-called response predictors will presumably gain a certain relevance in the context of neoadjuvant (radiotherapy) chemotherapy. The present review summarizes these results and discusses the future clinical relevance.
