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

The objective of this study is to investigate the liver's metastasis-related genes and the relationship between Girdin protein expression and clinical and pathological characteristics and prognosis in colorectal cancer. The differential expression of genes between tumor cells from cases with liver metastasis and those from cases without liver metastasis were detected using an RT(2) Profiler™ PCR Array. The expression of the stem cell gene Girdin was analyzed using immunohistochemistry staining. Subsequently, the relationship between Girdin and clinicopathological parameters of colorectal cancer was determined. The Girdin protein was verified as a gene related to liver metastasis and was expressed positively in 161 (37.01 %) of the 435 cases examined. The expression of Girdin protein was related to histological grade and distant metastasis (P = 0.007 and 0.007, respectively). After analyzing survival rates, cases with highly expressed Girdin protein were shown to attain a significantly higher rate of liver metastasis and poorer postoperative, disease-specific survival than those with no or low expressed Girdin protein (P = 0.001). In the Cox regression test, the depth of tumor invasion, histological grade, duke's stage, distant metastasis, and the Girdin protein were detected as an independent prognostic factor (0.020, 0.032, 0.001, 0.001, and 0.010, respectively). The Girdin protein may be a potential new early liver metastasis biomarker of colorectal cancer.
