Association of Two CD44 Polymorphisms with Clinical Outcomes of Gastric Cancer Patients
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Objective: CD44 is an important cell adhesion molecule that plays a key role in growth, invasion, proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells. CD44 protein over-expression is associated with a poor prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) and previous studies have shown that CD44 gene polymorphisms could affect survival and recurrence. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that polymorphisms impacting on the CD44 signaling pathway may predict clinical outcomes in patients with GC. Materials and Methods: DNA was extracted from blood of 150 healthy individuals and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue of 150 patients. The two polymorphisms rs187116 and rs7116432 were studied by RFLP-PCR and sequencing techniques. Results: There was a strong significant correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CD44 gene, tumor recurrence, and overall survival (p <0.0001). The existence of a significant relationship between tumor recurrence and overall survival was proved in this study, with at least one allele G for the polymorphism rs187116 and at least one allele A for polymorphism rs7116432. Conclusion: These results provide evidence of a relationship between CD44 gene polymorphisms and clinical outcomes in our GC patients. This result could help identify individuals with GC who have a high risk of tumor recurrence.
