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

Colorectal cancer is a major cause of cancer-related death in many countries. Inflammatory pathway is considered to play a major role in colorectal carcinogenesis. Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway is a link between inflammation and cancer. NF-κB is a transcription factor which belongs to the Rel family. Activation of NF-κB has been shown to play a role in cell proliferation, apoptosis, cytokine production, and oncogenesis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the expression levels of NF-κB/RelA in colorectal carcinoma using Real-time PCR. For this study, tumor tissue was taken from general surgery OT of PGIMER, Chandigarh from twenty-seven patients of colorectal cancer treated by surgery. Adjacent colonic mucosa specimens were also collected from all patients as normal control tissue. Real-time PCR was performed to determine the nuclear factor-κB/RelA expression levels in twenty-seven pairs of colorectal adenocarcinoma and adjacent normal colonic tissues. Out of 27 CRC patients, 18 were males and 9 females. Mean age of patients was 51.1 ± 14.8 years. Most of the cases were males (67%). Seventy percent of the cases were early (I-II) and 30% were advanced (III-IV) tumor stage. The quantitative relative expression of NF-kB mRNA was found to be significantly higher (
