Importance of Cadherins Methylation in Ovarian Cancer: a Next Generation Sequencing Approach.

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
Epigenetic aberrations are well known to play an important role in carcinogenesis, and also have a great potential to serve as biomarkers in many types of cancers, including ovarian cancer in which sensitive and specific biomarkers and detection methods are critically needed. The aim of this study was to investigate methylation of cadherin genes CDH10, CDH13 and CDH18 in ovarian cancer tissue by comparison with control tissue. The study group consisted of 38 patients with ovarian cancer and 25 control patients. For detection of epigenetic events we used next generation sequencing, the most important data were confirmed using high-resolution melting analysis and real-time PCR. We observed significantly higher methylation in CDH13, sporadic methylation in CDH10 and loss of methylation in CDH18 in the ovarian cancer group compared with the control group. These observations suggest that changes in methylation of cadherin genes may be one of the major mechanisms associated with ovarian cancer progression. In addition, because of the high frequency of methylation of the CDH13 gene in the early stages of ovarian cancer, the analyzed CpG sites might be good targets for next study of potential ovarian cancer screening biomarkers.
