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

The TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) is a p53 target gene known to regulate glycolysis by acting as fructose bis-phosphatase (FBPase) and modulate reactive oxygen species. TIGAR expression has been implicated in oncogenesis and progression of several human cancers. However, TIGAR expression is not known in various stages of colorectal cancer (CRC). There is an increase in the colorectal cancer incidence in Saudi Arabia. We sought to analyze TIGAR expression in this ethnic group. The aim of this study was to investigate the TIGAR expression in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients from Saudi Arabia. Tissue microarray (TMA) was constructed from 22 matched colorectal tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues. TIGAR expression was examined in TMA slide using immunohistochemistry. TIGAR mRNA was determined in 14 matched tumor tissue and adjacent normal tissue. TIGAR protein expression was also examined in CRC tumor tissues and cell lines. Statistical analyses (t-test) were applied to evaluate the significance of TIGAR expression. TIGAR mRNA level was upregulated significantly in stage II (p<0.01) and stage III (p<0.05) when compared to adjacent normal tissue. Immunohistochemical studies revealed that TIGAR expression was increased in colorectal cancer. Strong TIGAR positive staining was found in 68% (15/22) of the tumor samples with nuclear localization. TIGAR staining was found to be significantly increased in early stage (stage I and II) CRC (p<0.05) and late stage (stage III and IV) CRC (p<0.01). TIGAR protein was also found to be highly expressed in stage II and III colorectal cancer tissues and CRC cell lines. These findings indicate that TIGAR is highly expressed at the mRNA and protein levels in colorectal cancer with prominent nuclear localization. TIGAR expression may be used as a bio-marker for detection of colorectal cancer and can be used as a target for developing therapeutics for the treatment of colorectal cancer.
