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 one of the most frequent cancers. Genetic mutations in CRC already described can be detected in feces. Microarray methods in feces can represent a new diagnostic tool for CRC and significant improvement at public health.

aimto analyze stool DNA by human DNA quantify and microarray methods as alternatives to CRC screening.

methodThree methods were analyzed in stool samples: Human DNA Quantify, RanplexCRC and KRAS/BRAF/PIK3CA (KBP) Arrays.

resultsKBP array mutations were presented in 60.7% of CRC patients and RanplexCRC Array mutations in 61.1% of CRC patients. Sensitivity and specificity for human DNA quantification was 66% and 82% respectively. Fecal KBP Array had 35% sensitivity and 96% specificity and RanplexCRC Array method had 78% sensitivity and 100% specificity.

conclusionMicroarray methods showed promise as potential biomarkers for CRC screening; however, these methods had to be optimized to improve accuracy and applicability by clinical routine.
