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

backgroundThe biologic and clinical significance of DAND5 remains unknown in colorectal cancer (CRC).

objectiveHerein, we investigated the function of DAND5 and evaluated its clinical significance in both serum and matched primary tumors in patients with CRC.

methodsThe role of DAND5 was explored in CRC cells and clinical significance of DAND5 was investigated in CRC patients (

resultsKnockdown of DAND5 significantly decreased CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion partly associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype. Serum DAND5 levels in CRC were significantly higher than in normal controls and accurately distinguished CRC from healthy subjects. High serum DAND5 levels were significantly correlated with tumor differentiation, large tumor size, advanced Tumor Node Metastasis (TNM) stage, lymph node and liver metastasis, high carcinoembryonic antigen level, recurrence, poor overall and disease-free survival. Serum DAND5 level, together with lymph node metastasis, were independent prognostic factors for CRC patients. High DAND5 protein expression in CRC tissues was increased according to TNM stage. A significant positive correlation existed between serum DAND5 levels and matched DAND5 expression in CRC tissues.

conclusionOur data provide novel evidence for the clinical significance of DAND5 as a potential biomarker for CRC prognosis.
