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

backgroundmiR-126 functions as a tumor suppressor in gastric cancer (GC) by negatively regulating Crk protein expression post-transcriptionally.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the associations of miR-126 and Crk protein expression levels, alone or in combination, with the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of GC patients.

methodsThe expression levels of miR-126 and Crk protein in 338 GC patients were analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry, respectively. The relationship of miR-126 and Crk protein expression with clinicopathologic characteristics and clinical outcome was evaluated.

resultsCompared with matched adjacent non-tumor tissues, miR-126 was significantly down-regulated while Crk protein was significantly up-regulated in tumor tissues. A reduced miR-126 expression and an elevated Crk protein expression, alone or in combination, statistically correlated with aggressive clinicopathological characteristics, such as larger tumor size, deeper local invasion, more lymph node metastasis, advanced TNM stage, and poorer prognosis. Multivariate analysis showed that combined miR-126-low/Crk protein-high expression was an independent unfavorable prognostic factor of GC.

conclusionsThese results indicate for the first time that miR-126 down-regulation and Crk protein up-regulation may be synergistically associated with tumor progression in GC and may predict unfavorable prognosis of GC.
