Prognostic relevance of stromal CD26 expression in rectal cancer after chemoradiotherapy.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundCD26 is a transmembrane glycoprotein whose role in various types of malignancies, along with the potential therapeutic and diagnostic targets, has been evaluated. Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is an effective tool for local control of rectal cancer, but the rate of disease recurrence remains high. The aim of this study was to clarify the association between CD26 expression and rectal cancer after preoperative CRT.
methodsA total of 85 patients with rectal cancer who had undergone preoperative CRT were enrolled in this study. We investigated CD26 expression in residual tumors and the surrounding stromal tissue using immunohistochemistry. Additionally, stromal CD26 gene expression was assessed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
resultsPatients with high CD26 expression in cancer tissue more frequently had serosal invasion, vascular invasion, and a poor pathological response. High expression of CD26 in the tumor stroma was significantly correlated with histology and tumor recurrence. High CD26 expression in the stroma, but not the tumor itself, was significantly correlated with a poor prognosis. Patients expressing CD26 in the tumor stroma, based on transcriptional analysis, also had a significantly poorer prognosis than those without the expression. In multivariate analysis, lymph node metastasis and high stromal CD26 expression were identified as independent prognostic factors in patients with rectal cancer after neoadjuvant CRT.
conclusionStromal CD26 expression after preoperative CRT was significantly associated with tumor recurrence and prognosis in rectal cancer patients. Our data suggest that stromal CD26 plays an important role and is a potential therapeutic target in tumor relapse.
