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

purposeTranscriptional profiling showed decreased expression of gastrokine 1 (GKN1) and the related trefoil factor interacting protein (TFIZ1/GKN2) in Helicobacter pylori infection. Decreased GKN1 and GKN2 mRNA expression has been reported in gastric adenocarcinoma. We have examined GKN1 and GKN2 protein expression in a large gastric cancer series, correlated expression with tumor subtype, and evaluated their utility as prognostic biomarkers. EXPERIMENTAL

designGKN1, GKN2, and the trefoil factors TFF1 and TFF3 were examined in tissue microarrays from 155 distal gastric adenocarcinomas. Immunohistochemical expression was correlated with clinical outcome. GKN1 and GKN2 expression was measured by real-time PCR and Western analysis in samples of gastric cancer and adjacent nonneoplastic mucosa.

resultsGKN1 was lost in 78% of diffuse and 42% of intestinal cancers (P < 0.0001, diffuse versus intestinal). GKN2 expression was lost in 85% of diffuse and 54% of intestinal type cancers (P < 0.002). GKN1 and GKN2 down-regulation were confirmed by Western and real-time PCR analysis. Loss of either protein was associated with significantly worse outcome in intestinal-type tumors by univariate analysis; and GKN2 loss remained a predictor of poor outcome in multivariate analysis (P < 0.033). TFF1 was lost in >70%, and TFF3 was expressed in approximately 50% of gastric cancers.

conclusionsLoss of GKN1 and GKN2 expression occurs frequently in gastric adenocarcinomas, especially in the diffuse subtype. GKN1 and GKN2 loss are associated with shorter overall survival in the intestinal subtype.
