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

A-kinase-anchoring protein 9 (AKAP9) coordinates the cellular location and function of protein kinase A. AKAP9 plays an important role in centrosome duplication, cell cycle progression and maintenance of cell membrane integrity, alterations of which contribute to tumorigenesis. Somatic mutations of AKAP9 gene have been detected in many cancers including gastric (GC) and colorectal cancers (CRC), but the mutation status with respect to microsatellite instability (MSI) has not been reported. In a public database, we found that AKAP9 gene had mononucleotide repeats in the coding sequences that might be mutation targets in the cancers with MSI. We analyzed the mutations in 79 GCs and 124 CRCs including high MSI (MSI-H) and microsatellite stable/low MSI (MSS/MSI-L) cases by single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis and DNA sequencing. Overall, we found AKAP9 frameshift mutations in 4 (11.7 %) GCs and 20 (17.7 %) CRCs with MSI-H (24/113), but not in MSS/MSI-L cancers (0/90) (p < 0.001). In addition, we analyzed intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) of AKAP9 frameshift mutations in 16 CRCs and found that five CRCs (31.3 %) harbored regional ITH of the AKAP9 frameshift mutations. Our data indicate that AKAP9 gene harbors not only somatic frameshift mutations but also mutational ITH, which together may be features of GC and CRC with MSI-H. Our results also suggest that regional mutation analysis is needed for a better evaluation of mutation status in these tumors to overcome ITH.
