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

backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is a common type of cancer around the world. Detection of microRNA (miRNA) aberration in blood samples is a novel approach for CRC screening.

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to explore the serum miR-497 expression pattern in CRC and examine its potential usefulness as a biomarker for CRC diagnosis and prognosis.

methodsSerum miR-497 expression was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in 110 patients with CRC, 35 cases with colorectal adenoma, 54 cases with colorectal polyps, and 70 healthy individuals.

resultsThe expression level of miR-497 was significantly downregulated in CRC tissues compared to the normal tissues based on the data from three independent studies GSE68204, GSE41655 and GSE35834. Compared to healthy controls, the serum miR-497 level was significantly decreased in patient with CRC or benign lesion (colorectal adenoma and polyps). Serum miR-497 level was dramatically increased in the post-operative blood samples from early stage CRC patients. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that serum miR-497 had a high sensitivity and specificity for discriminating CRC or precancerous colorectal lesion from normal controls. Moreover, low serum miR-497 expression was closely correlated with aggressive clinical features and shorter overall survival (OS). Kaplan-Meier analyses also revealed that OS was strongly associated with lymph node invasion, TNM stage and histological grade. Furthermore, univariate and multivariate analysis showed serum miR-497 was an independent prognostic factor for CRC.

conclusionsCollectively, serum miR-497 may serve as a promising biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of CRC.
