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

backgroundTumorigenesis in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) differs from that in sporadic colorectal cancer during the early stage. We examined the expression of proliferation- and apoptosis-regulating proteins in relation to proliferation and apoptosis in HNPCC and sporadic adenomas.

methodsProliferation and apoptosis were quantified, and the expression of cyclin B1, D3 and E, p21, p27, bcl-2, bax, p53 and cox-2 was determined by immunohistochemistry in 100 patients (42 with HNPCC and 48 with sporadic adenomas).

resultsNo differences between the two groups of patients in terms of proliferation and apoptosis were detected. Low-grade dysplastic HNPCC adenomas differed from sporadic ones by expressing bcl-2 more often (69 vs. 42%) and bax less often (50 vs. 73%). In comparison to sporadic adenomas, fewer high-grade dysplastic HNPCC expressed cyclin B1 and E (50 and 38% vs. 87 and 87%, respectively), p21 (6% vs. 53%) and bax (31% vs. 80%). In addition, HNPCC adenomas had a lower overexpression of p53 (5 vs. 19%).

conclusionThe expression of cell cycle- and apoptosis-related proteins differs between HNPCC and sporadic adenomas from early through to advanced stages although proliferation and apoptosis are not different. These differences may contribute to the different clinical behavior of HNPCC and sporadic adenomas.
