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

Metastases are frequently found during colorectal cancer diagnoses and are the main determinants of clinical outcome. The lack of reliable models of metastases has precluded their mechanistic understanding and our capacity to improve outcome. We studied the effect of E-cadherin and Snail1 expression on metastagenesis in a colorectal cancer model. We microinjected SW480-ADH human colorectal cancer cells, transfected with an empty vector (Mock) or overexpressing Snail1 (Snail1(OE)) or E-cadherin (E-cadherin(OE)), in the ceca of nude mice (eight per group) and analyzed tumor growth, dissemination, and Snail1, E-cadherin, β-catenin, and Presenilin1 (PS1) expression in local tumors and/or metastatic foci. Snail1(OE) cells disseminated only to lymph nodes, whereas Mock or E-cadherin(OE) cells spread to lymph nodes and peritoneums. Peritoneal tumor foci developed by E-cadherin(OE) cells presented an increase in E-cadherin proteolysis and nuclear translocation, and enhanced expression of proteolytically active PS1, which was linked to increased tumor growth and shortened mouse survival. Interestingly, local and lymph node tumors in mice bearing E-cadherin(OE) cells overexpressed E-cadherin, but they did not show E-cadherin proteolysis or nuclear translocation. Remarkably, E-cadherin nuclear translocation and enhanced expression of active PS1 were found in a patient with colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma. In conclusion, we have established a colorectal cancer metastasis model in which E-cadherin proteolyis and nuclear translocation associates with aggressive foci growth only in the peritoneal microenvironment.
