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

backgroundEpidemiological data have revealed that colorectal cancer (CRC) risk is increased in patients with Metabolic syndrome.

objectiveTo explore the expressions of IGF-1, ERK, GLUT4, IRS-1 in MS patients with CRC and their associations with the clinical characteristics of CRC.

methodsWe investigated the expressions of IGF-1, ERK, GLUT4 and IRS-1 in greater omental adipose tissues of 168 MS patients with/without CRC, 85 CRC patients without MS and 98 healthy controls by RT-PCR, and analyzed the relationships between their expressions and clinical characteristics of CRC.

resultsThe expression levels of IGF-1 and ERK in MS patients with/without CRC were higher while the expression levels of GLUT4 were lower compared with CRC patients without MS and healthy controls (P< 0.01). The expression levels of IGF-1 and ERK in MS patients with CRC were higher while expression levels of GLUT4 were lower compared to MS patients without CRC (P< 0.01). Expression levels of ERK, IGF-1, GLUT4 were associated with clinical characteristics of CRC, including tumor size, distant metastasis and advanced stages (III/IV) (P< 0.05).

conclusionsExpressions of IGF-1, ERK and GLUT4 in greater omental adipose tissues might be useful biomarkers and predictive targets in the diagnosis of CRC.
