Prognostic significance of CD168 overexpression in colorectal cancer.
Article in Oncology letters, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The expression of cluster of differentiation 168 (CD168), a cell surface receptor for hyaluronan, is associated with cancer progression and metastases. The aim of the present study was to analyze the expression of CD168 by immunohistochemistry in colorectal cancer (CRC) and to examine the association between CD168 expression and clinicopathological features, including survival. A total of 78 tissue specimens obtained from consecutive CRC patients exhibiting various tumor node metastasis (TNM) stages were immunostained for the analysis of CD168 expression. The prognostic value of CD168 was subsequently evaluated. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that CD168 overexpression was significantly associated with overall survival (P<0.05); however, no significant association was identified between CD168 expression and tumor location, tumor differentiation or TNM stage. Overexpression of CD168 was closely associated with poorer patient survival, which indicates that it may present a useful indicator for clinical prognosis.
