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

aimThis study set out to determine the effect of methylation on MALAT1 gene in primary colorectal lesions and tumors to gain further knowledge about the diagnostic and prognostic value of MALAT.

backgroundMetastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is one of the long non-coding RNAs that plays an important role in invasion, cell proliferation, and metastasis of various cancers. However, there is insufficient information on the association between MALAT1 and the methylation process as well as its role in the development of colorectal cancer.

methodsMethylation pattern of MALAT1 promoter was determined by Methylation-Specific Polymerase Chain Reaction (MSP) in 86 colorectal primary lesions, tumors, and normal specimens. MALAT1 methylation pattern was compared in tumor and polyp tissue. In order to obtain more accurate results, we investigated the association between MALAT1 promoter methylation pattern and clinicopathologic factors in patients.

resultsThe results indicated that the MALAT1 promoter methylation pattern in the tumor tissue, primary lesion tissue, and normal was not significantly different (p=0.430). Comparison of the MALAT1 promoter methylation pattern between polyp types and tumor tissue groups was not significant either (p=0.437). Surprisingly, the methylation frequency of MALAT1 methylation was significantly higher in colon lesions than in their rectum lesion (p = 0.035). In addition, no significant hypermethylation of MALAT1 was observed between the other patients' clinicopathological data in both polyp 46/66 and tumor tissues 20/66.

conclusionThis study dealt with determining the effect of methylation on MALAT1 gene in primary colorectal lesions and tumors to gain further knowledge about the diagnostic and prognostic value of MALAT.
