High-resolution analysis of DNA copy number alterations in rectal cancer: correlation with metastasis, survival, and mRNA expression.
Trial report in Strahlentherapie und Onkologie : Organ der Deutschen Rontgengesellschaft ... [et al], 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
background and purposeThis study aimed to determine the candidate genes and chromosomal imbalances capable of predicting occurrences of metastasis in patients with rectal cancer. PATIENTS AND
methodsFresh frozen tumor tissues from 80 patients with rectal cancer were prospectively collected and analyzed using Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 gene expression arrays and high-resolution Illumina single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays. Endpoints of the study were metastasis-free survival (MFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS).
resultsThe median follow-up was 102 months (1-146). Deletions of 8p and 1p36-35 correlated with worse MFS (p = 0.005 and p = 0.01, respectively) and CSS (p = 0.001 and p = 0.01, respectively). Multivariate analysis identified 8p deletion as an independent prognostic factor for MFS (p = 0.04) and CSS (p = 0.003); 97 genes located on the 8p chromosome were significantly underexpressed in tumors with 8p deletion.
conclusionThis study shows for the first time in rectal cancer an independent correlation of 8p deletion with MFS and CSS and highlights potential new tumor suppressor genes.
