Expression of survivin and its four splice variants in colorectal cancer and its clinical significances.
Article in Medical oncology (Northwood, London, England), 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical significances of the mRNA expression of survivin gene and its four splice variants in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC samples, matched adjacent tissues, and normal tissues were collected from surgical resections of 39 patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis. The mRNA expression of survivin and its four splice variants, that is, survivin-△Ex3, survivin-2B, survivin-3B, and survivin-2α, was detected using semiquantitative PCR and RT-PCR. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) CAM5 was determined as control. The mRNA expression rates of survivin, survivin-△Ex3, survivin-2B, survivin-3B, surviving-2α, and CEA CAM5 in CRC samples were significantly higher than those in adjacent tissues (P < 0.01) and those in normal tissues (P < 0.01). The mRNA levels of the above variants in CRC samples were also significantly higher than those in adjacent tissues (P < 0.01) and those in normal tissues (P < 0.01). The mRNA levels of survivin, survivin-2B, and survivin-2α were not associated with any clinical variable of patients, while the levels of survivin-△Ex3 and survivin-3B were associated with lymphoid metastasis and Dukes grade (P < 0.05), and survivin-△Ex3 was associated with invasiveness. We concluded that mRNA expression rates and levels of survivin and its four splice variants elevated in CRC tissues, and expression levels of survivin-△Ex3 and survivin-3B were positively associated with tumor aggression.
