DICER1 and PRKRA in Colon Adenocarcinoma.
Article in Biomarker insights, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Differential microRNA expression in colon adenocarcinoma (CA) was previously reported. MicroRNA biogenesis and function requires a set of proteins designated as the microRNA machinery, which includes DICER1 and PRKRA. Loss of heterozygosity at 14q32.13 DICER1 locus was detected in up to 60% of CA cases. The in silico gene array analysis of CA showed down-regulation of DICER1 and an up-regulation of PRKRA. Immunohistochemically, DICER1 expression was abnormal in 65% of CA (95 of 147 cases). PRKRA was deregulated in 70% of CA (32 of 46 cases). Expression of DICER1 and PRKRA was correlated with clinicopathologic features of CA. DICER1 up-regulation was seen more commonly in women. Only 10 of 46 cases immunostained for both DICER1 and PRKRA showed normal levels of both DICER1 and PRKRA. Microsatellite status of 32 cases was determined. Microsatellite instable cases showed DICER1 up-regulation more commonly when compared to microsatellite stable cases; however, this trend was not statistically significant. Abnormal DICER1 and/or PRKRA expression might explain the observed changes in microRNA profile. The status of the endogenous DICER1 and PRKRA in CA may help to predict the response to future RNA interference-based therapy.
