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

backgroundPatients with advanced gastric cancer (GC) have an adverse prognosis even after curative resection. Development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for GC is urgently required.

methodsThe expression and methylation status of DENN/MADD domain-containing protein 2D (DENND2D), a member of the membrane trafficking proteins, were evaluated in 12 GC cell lines and 112 pairs of surgical specimens. Subgroup analysis based on tumor differentiation, location, and morphology was also performed. Expression and distribution of DENND2D protein were determined by immunohistochemistry.

resultsThe majority of GC cell lines (75%) and tissues (79%) showed reduced expression of DENND2D mRNA compared with noncancerous gastric tissues. GC tissues showed a significantly lower mean expression level of mRNA and a higher frequency of promoter hypermethylation of DENND2D than corresponding noncancerous tissues. No significant differences in DENND2D mRNA expression and methylation status were found between GC subtypes categorized by tumor differentiation, location, and morphology. The expression patterns of DENND2D protein were confirmed to be consistent with those of DENND2D mRNA. Downregulation of DENND2D mRNA in GC tissues was significantly associated with factors related to more advanced GC and subsequent adverse prognosis. Among 72 patients who underwent R0 resection, downregulation of DENND2D mRNA in GC tissues was an independent prognostic factor and associated with early recurrence.

conclusionsOur results suggested that DENND2D is a putative tumor suppressor gene regulated by promoter hypermethylation in GC. Downregulation of DENND2D can serve as a novel tumor biomarker to predict progression and early recurrence of all types of GC.
