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

Colonic cancer has become a main reason of mortality associated with cancer; however, left and right‑sided colonic cancer have diverse outcomes in terms of epidemiological, histological, clinical parameters and prognosis. We aimed to examine the discrepancies between these two types of colon cancers to identify potential therapeutic targets. In the present study, three gene expression profiles (GSE44076, GSE31595, GSE26906) from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were downloaded and further analyzed. A PPI (protein‑protein interaction) network of the differentially‑expressed genes (DEGs) of GSE44076 between tumor and normal was established with the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes database. Then, the DEGs of these two colon cancers (left, right) samples were identified. Subsequently, the intersection of DEGs of left and right‑sided colon cancer samples obtained from three databases, and DEGs of tumor and normal samples were analyzed. Collagen type XI α1 chain (COL11A1), Twist family bHLH transcription factor 1 (TWIST1), insulin‑like 5 and chromogranin A were upregulated proteins, while 3β‑hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was downregulated protein in right colon cancer than in left‑sided tumor samples. Through further experimental verification, we revealed that COL11A1 and TWIST1 were significantly upregulated at the mRNA and protein levels within right‑sided colon cancer compared with in left‑sided colon cancer samples (P<0.05), consistent with bioinformatical analysis. Furthermore, a positive correlation between COL11A1 and TWIST1 protein expression was observed (P<0.0276). Collectively, our data showed that COL11A1 and TWIST1 may be potential prognostic indicators and molecular targets for the treatment of right‑sided colon cancer.
