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

backgroundDespite developments in diagnosis and treatment, 20% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients present with metastatic disease and 30% of cases recur after curative surgery. Furthermore, the molecular factors involved in prognosis and response to therapy in CRC is poorly understood. The aims of this study were to quantitatively examine the expression of target genes in colorectal cancer and to correlate their expression levels with clinico-pathological variables.

methodsA detailed analysis of published CRC microarray data was performed to identify the most prominent genes. The selected genes were validated in fifty-two pairs of fresh colorectal tumour and associated normal tissue specimens by RQ-PCR using TaqMan(®) assays. Statistical analysis and correlation with clinicopathological data was performed using SPSS software.

resultsExpression levels of CXCL12 (P=0.000), CDH17 (P=0.026), MUC2 (P=0.000), L-FABP (P=0.000) and PDCD4 (P=0.000) were down regulated and IL8 (P=0.000) was upregulated in tumours compared to normal colorectal tissues. No significant differences were noted in expression of CEACAM5, CXCR4, CXCR7, TGFB1, TGFBR1 and TGFBR2. Furthermore, we found significant associations of gene expression levels and clinicopathological variables such as tumour size, grade, invasion and lymph node status.

conclusionsWe identified a comprehensive list of genes with highly differential expression patterns in colorectal cancer that could serve as molecular markers to complement existing histopathological factors in diagnosis, follow up and therapeutic strategies for individualised care of patients.
