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

purposeOxidative DNA damage is one of the mechanisms associated to initial colorectal carcinogenesis, but how it interacts with β-catenin, an adherence protein related to cancer evolution, is not clear. This study investigates the relationship between oxidative DNA damage and β-catenin expression in normal mucosa and colon tumor tissue (adenoma and adenocarcinoma) in colorectal adenocarcinoma evolution.

methodOne hundred and 13 samples were studied. Hematoxylin-eosin determined histological grade. β-Catenin expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. The oxidative DNA damage was evaluated using comet assay technique. The coefficient for rejection of the nullity hypothesis was taken to 5 %. Kruskal-Wallis, Spearman test, and partial correlation were used to analyze the data.

resultsThere was oxidative DNA damage increase in colorectal cancer evolution (p < 0.01). Histological grade was correlated with oxidative DNA damage (p < 0.01). There were differences in β-catenin expression among normal, adenoma, and adenocarcinoma tissue with progressive increase of β-catenin expression (p < 0.00). Histological grade was correlated to β-catenin expression (p < 0.00). There was a relationship (p < 0.00) between β-catenin and histological grade while controlling for the effect of oxidative DNA damage.

conclusionThe findings of this study make it possible to establish a relationship between oxidative DNA damage and β-catenin expression in normal mucosa and colorectal tumor tissue. Additionally, they show a causal relationship between variations of β-catenin in different tissues analyzed while controlling for the effect of oxidative DNA damage.
