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

Recent studies indicated that p16 and p14 inactivation owing to promoter methylation was important for colorectal tumorigenesis. In this study, we examined the methylation status of these genes in 86 primary colorectal cancers using methylation-specific PCR (MSP) and correlated the results with the clinicopathological features of the patients. Aberrant promoter methylation of p16 and p14 genes was detected in 43 of 86 (50%) and 25 of 86 (29%) colorectal cancers, respectively. Next, we examined the correlation of methylation status with the clinicopathological features. We found a significant difference in maximal tumor size (P=0.022) when patients with both p16 and p14 methylation were compared to other patients. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in other factors, such as the extent of tumor and Dukes stage. These results suggested that colorectal cancer with both p16 and p14 methylation has the same invasiveness at a smaller size compared to that of the cancer with neither p16 nor p14 methylation. Inactivation of both p16 and p14 genes may result in a malignant change in colorectal cancer cells, leading to advanced cancers with a smaller size than those with p16 or p14 activity.
