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

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. SAR1 gene homolog B (SAR1B) is a GTPase that has been reported to have a central role in the regulation of lipid homeostasis and is associated with numerous diseases. However, its role in cancer, particularly in CRC, remains unclear. The present study revealed that SAR1B was overexpressed in CRC samples and this was associated with shorter overall survival time in patients with CRC. Colony formation, cell proliferation and flow cytometry assays were conducted to evaluate the functions of SAR1B in CRC. It was reported that SAR1B may be associated with tumorigenesis of CRC. Knockdown of SAR1B suppressed cell proliferation and induced significant apoptosis of RKO cells. Furthermore, microarray analysis was performed to identify the potential targets of SAR1B in CRC. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that SAR1B was significantly involved in regulating 'TGF-β signaling', 'paxillin signaling', 'cell cycle regulation by BTG family proteins' and 'IGF-1 signaling'. These results suggested that SAR1B may be considered a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for CRC.
