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

Oxaliplatin is currently approved for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Its uptake and consequent cytotoxicity is determined by the levels of organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2). In addition, tumor budding (TB) is associated with high malignant potential. However, the impact of the levels of OCT2 and TB on clinicopathological findings and the prognosis of mCRC patients treated with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy remains unclear. Here, 80 mCRC patients were retrospectively assessed. Immunohistochemistry was performed to determine the levels of OCT2 and TB. High levels of OCT2 (47/80, 59%) were detected at the invasion front and were associated with depth of invasion (P=0.03), whereas high levels of TB (40/80, 50%) were associated with extensive lymphatic invasion (P=0.03). In univariate analysis, high OCT2 levels were significantly correlated with longer progression-free survival (PFS) (P=0.02) whereas high TB levels were associated with shorter PFS (P=0.01). In combined analysis, patients with 2 favorable factors (high OCT2/low TB) had longer PFS than those with 1 (P=0.03) or 0 (P<0.001) favorable factors. Multivariate analysis confirmed that the OCT2 level (P=0.007), TB level (P=0.004), and combined OCT2/TB status (P=0.001) were independent predictors for PFS. These results suggest that high levels of OCT2 indicate severe invasion, but also better prognosis in mCRC patients treated with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, possibly because of its role in oxaliplatin susceptibility. Combined analysis of OCT2 and TB status may guide the selection of patients for successful oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.
