The Tendency of Having MSH2 and MSH6 Microsatellite Instability among Clinicopathological Features in Patients with Colorectal Cancer
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 4 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: This study aimed to identify micro-satellite instability (MSI) based on the expression of MMRp (MSH2 and MSH6) and to evaluate the association of MSI and with clinicopathological features in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: MMRp expression in 80 tissue samples from patients with adenocarcinoma CRC were evaluated by using anti-MSH2 and -MSH6 antibodies. Loss of MSH2 and/or MSH6 expression was stated as MSI. The association between MSI status and clinicopathological features were analyzed by using binary logistic regression (p<0.05). Results: The frequency of MSI in patients with CRC varied, corresponding to 8.3% (6/72) MSH2 MSI, 36.1% (26/72) MSH6 MSI and 6.9% (5/72) MSH2-MSH6 MSI. Male patients (OR=1.98), with tumor located in colon (OR=1.47) and late stage tumor (OR=1.48) have a tendency of having MSH2 MSI. Male patients (OR=1.4), with tumor located in colon (OR=2.53) and poor tumor differentiation (OR=3.02) have a tendency to encounter MSH6 MSI. Male patients (OR=4.93) with late stage tumor (OR=1.69) have a tendency of having MSH2-MSH6 MSI. Conclusion: Patients more likely to have MSH2 MSI are males, and/or having tumor located in colon, and /or having late stage tumor. Patients more likely to have MSH6 MSI are males, and/or having tumor located in colon, and/or having tumor with poor differentiation. Patients who have greater tendency to have MSH2 and MSH6 MSI are males, and/or having late stage tumor.
