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 genetic or abnormal activation of PI3K/PTEN signaling pathway play an important role with regard to disease progression in variety of human malignancies. Experimental and epidemiologic studies indicated that the genetic polymorphisms in the PTEN, PI3K genes are associated with cancer risk, yet little evidence exists for those 2 genes and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. To address this, we evaluated whether PTEN rs701848, PIK3CA rs2699887 variants are associated with CRC susceptibility, clinicopathological parameters and clinical outcomes in CRC patients treated with FOLFOX (Oxaliplatin, Leucovorin, 5-Fluorouracil) regimen. A case-control study was performed in 780 CRC patients and 764 healthy controls using the TaqMan assay method. A significant increased risk of CRC was observed in patients carrying PTEN rs701848 TC or CC genotype (adjusted OR=1.306, 95% CI=1.030-1.655, P=0.027; adjusted OR=1.543, 95% CI=1.148-2.075, P=0.004, respectively), TC/CC genotype (adjusted OR=1.367, 95% CI=1.090-1.714, P=0.043) in the dominant model, and C allele (adjusted OR=1.229, 95% CI=1.067-1.416, P=0.004). However, no association was detected between rs2699887 in the PIK3CA gene and CRC risk. A significant association was found between pathological grade (Dukes A and B vs. Dukes C and D) and PIK3CA rs2699887 genotypes. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that PTEN rs701848 genotypes were significantly associated with the overall survival (OS) of CRC patients treated with FOLFOX regimen (n=780). Individuals carrying PTEN rs701848 TC or TC/CC genotypes showed significantly longer median survival time (MST) than TT genotype and significant hazard ratio (TC: adjusted HR=0.523, 95% CI=0.325-0.840, P=0.007; TC/CC: adjusted HR=0.545, 95% CI=0.351-0.845, P=0.007). Therefore, rs701848 polymorphism in the PTEN gene is associated with susceptibility to CRC, and C allele of rs701848 showed significant independent better prognosis of CRC patients treated with FOLFOX regimen. These results indicate that rs701848 in the PTEN gene might be a candidate pharmacogenomic factor to assess the susceptibility and prognosis in CRC patients.
