Clinical significance and comparison of flotillin 1 expression in left and right colon cancer.
Article in Oncology letters, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Flotillin 1 (FLOT1) is increasingly implicated in various types of cancer, and has been reported to influence tumorigenesis and cancer progression, leading to poor prognosis for survival time; however, its expression in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its influence on various clinicopathological parameters of this disease remain unknown. In the present study, FLOT1 expression and its effect on different clinicopathological parameters were assessed immunohistochemically and histologically in 81 CRC and 81 non-tumorous colon tissue samples. The immunohistochemical staining was scored semi-quantitatively. The association of FLOT1 expression with various parameters and its effect on overall survival time was also assessed. FLOT1 was upregulated in the CRC tissue, with increased expression in the right colon tissue samples compared with those of left colon. Increased FLOT1 expression in CRC tissue samples was associated with tumor volume, differentiation, tumor grade and poor overall survival time. In the right colon tissue samples in particular, there was a notable association with tumor volume and grade, indicating its effect on proliferation and tumor stage at this site. A multivariate Cox regression hazard analysis revealed that only tumor grade and differentiation were the independent predictors of overall survival time in patients with CRC. Together, the results of the present study suggest that FLOT1 serves important functions in the proliferation and progression of CRC, contributes to decreased survival time, and may serve as a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of CRC.
