Expression of chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter-transcription factor II and liver X receptor as prognostic indicators for human colorectal cancer.
Article in Oncology letters, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Cholesterol increases the risk of colorectal cancer. Liver X receptor (LXR), retinoid X receptor (RXR)α and sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP)-1c are transcriptional regulators of lipid metabolism. Chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter-transcription factor II (COUP-TFII) serves an essential role in angiogenesis and development, but its role in cancer is controversial. The expression of COUP-TFII, LXR, RXRα and SREBP-1c in colorectal cancer, as well as their association with clinicopathologic features, was assessed, and their utility as prognostic indicators in colorectal cancer evaluated. Colorectal cancer samples (n=707 patients) were analyzed for COUP-TII, LXR, RXRα and SREBP-1c expression by immunohistochemistry. Overall survival curves of patients with tumors expressing different levels of these proteins were produced and risk factors were assessed. Of the 707 patients, 32.7, 50.9, 56.4, and 41.7% were positive for COUP-TFII, LXR, RXRα, and SREBP-1c, respectively. The lack of COUP-TFII or LXR expression was associated with lower overall survival rates (P=0.0154 for COUP-TFII, and 0.0113 for LXR). Following adjustment for other clinical risk factors (age, sex, tumor size, grade, vascular invasion, and Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage), the lack of COUP-TFII or LXR expression was a negative independent prognostic factor for survival. The expression of COUP-TFII and LXR alone or in combination may be biomarkers to indicate a positive prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer.
