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 claim a critical role for RUNX3 in gastric epithelial homeostasis. However, conflicting results exist regarding RUNX3 expression in the stomach and its potential role as a tumour-suppressor gene (TSG) in gastric carcinogenesis. Our aim was to evaluate the role of RUNX3 in early-onset gastric carcinomas (EOGCs). We analysed 41 EOGCs for RUNX3 aberrations using loss of heterozygosity (LOH), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses. LOH of markers flanking RUNX3 was relatively common, indicating that loss of the gene may play a role in gastric carcinogenesis. However, FISH analysis of selected cases and a panel of 14 gastric carcinoma-derived cell lines showed widespread presence of multiple copies of centromere 1. While RUNX3 copy numbers were generally equal to or fewer than those of centromere 1, at least two copies were present in almost all cells analysed. Accordingly, a subpopulation of tumour cells in 12/37 cases showed RUNX3 protein expression. However, expression was not detected in the adjacent nontumorous mucosa of any case. Together, these observations indicate that chromosome 1 aberrations occur frequently in EOGCs and are reflected in the LOH and IHC patterns found. Our findings refute a role for RUNX3 as a TSG in EOGCs.
