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

5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine (5-mdC), 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxycytidine (5-hmdC), 5-methylcytidine (5-mrC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytidine (5-hmrC) are epigenetic marks of DNA and RNA, and aberrant levels of these modified nucleosides were found to be associated with various cancers. Urine is a preferred source of biological fluid for biomarker discovery because the sample collection process is not invasive to patients. Herein, we developed a novel malic acid-enhanced hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS/MS) method for sensitive and simultaneous quantification of the modified cytosine nucleosides in human urine. Malic acid markedly increased the detection sensitivities of all four cytosine nucleosides, with the limits of detection (LODs) for 5-mdC, 5-hmdC, 5-mrC and 5-hmrC being 0.025, 0.025, 0.025 and 0.050 fmol, respectively. By using this method, we demonstrated, for the first time, the presence of 5-hmrC in human urine, and we successfully quantified 5-mdC, 5-hmdC, 5-mrC and 5-hmrC in urine samples collected from 90 patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and 90 healthy controls. We found that the levels of 5-mdC, 5-hmdC, 5-mrC and 5-hmrC in urine were all substantially decreased in CRC patients, suggesting that these modified nucleosides might have great potential to be noninvasive biomarkers for early detection and prognosis of CRC. Together, we established a novel and sensitive method for detecting 5-methylated and 5-hydroxymethylated cytosine nucleosides in human urine and the results from this study may stimulate future investigations about the regulatory roles of these cytosine derivatives in the initiation and development of CRC.
