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
objectiveWe aimed to investigate the relationship of expression of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in colon cancer and its predecessor colon polyp. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study included 29 patients with colon polyp, 19 patients with colon cancer and 65 healthy control subjects. The expressions of MMP-7, TIMP-1 and COX-2 were investigated by real time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
resultsThe expressions of TIMP-1, COX-2 and MMP-7 levels were significantly higher in polyp tissue compared to normal tissue (p = 0.024, p < 0.001, p = 0.009, respectively). Expression of TIMP-1, COX-2 and MMP-7 in cancer tissues were higher than both normal tissue and polyp tissue (p = 0.009 and p = 0.001; p < 0.001 and p < 0.001; p = 0.029 and p = 0.008, respectively). In the cancer group, no significant relationship was detected between metastasis and MMP-7, TIMP-1 and COX-2 expressions (p > 0.05). In the polyp tissues, no significant relationship was detected between the histologic type and size of polyps and MMP-7, TIMP-1 and COX-2 levels (p > 0.05). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the cancer group were 0.821 for TIMP-1, 0.888 for COX-2, and 0.880 for MMP-7 (p = 0 < 0.001).
conclusionA role and implication of expressions of MMP-7, COX-2 and TIMP-1 in colon cancer is predicted. HOW TO CITE THIS ARTICLE: Bengi G, Keles D, Topalak Ö, Yalçin M, Kiyak R, Oktay G.
