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

purposeTo identify the expression profile of novel microRNAs (miRNAs) in colon cancer and evaluate their clinical applicability.

methodsDifferences in the expression of serum miRNAs in patients with colon cancer and healthy controls were identified using miRNA microarrays. Differentially expressed miRNAs were verified via real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using sera from 50 patients with colon cancer and 44 healthy controls. These miRNAs were also verified in a double-blind validation experiment using sera from 30 patients with colon cancer, 30 patients with colonic polyps, and 30 healthy controls.

resultsMicroarray hybridization revealed that 87 miRNAs were differentially expressed between the sera of patients with colon cancer and healthy controls. Among these miRNAs, 39 miRNAs were up-regulated, whereas 48 miRNAs were down-regulated. Verification of the expression of these miRNAs using real-time PCR revealed that the expression levels of miR-31, miR-141, miR-224-3p, miR-576-5p, and miR-4669 were significantly different between patients with colon cancer and healthy controls. Using these five miRNAs to construct a miRNA expression profile (or miRNA panel) will facilitate more effective diagnosis of colon cancer.

conclusionClinical analysis of miR-31, miR-141, miR-224-3p, miR-576-5p, and miR-4669 expression in patients with colon cancer may facilitate the diagnosis of colon cancer.
