Methylation of the suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 gene (SOCS3) in bladder cancer.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundIt has been identified consequences of dysregulation of JAK-STAT signalling, particularly in regard to JAK-STAT signalling that has been shown to have roles in the oncogenesis of several cell types. SOCS3 protein, the negative regulatory protein of JAK-STAT signaling pathway, may also plays critical regulatory roles in cancer initiation and progression. SOCS3 promoter hypermethylation has often been identified in human cancers; however, the precise role of SOCS3 in bladder cancer is unclear.
methodsThe methylation status of the SOCS3 was analyzed in an age (±5 years) and sex-matched case-control study, including 112 bladder cancer cases and 118 normal controls, using the MassARRAY EpiTYPER system.
resultsMethylation rate of JAK2, SOCS3 and STAT3 gene were shown to vary among different CpG island. The methylation rate of SOCS3 gene was also much higher in BCa than in normal control participants, but the methylation rate of JAK2, STAT3 gene weren't different in Bca and normal control participants.
conclusionsOur study demonstrates that promoter hypermethylation of SOCS3 gene is associated with BCa and thus, may serve as an independent prognostic biomarker.
