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

The high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) protein is implicated in the development of various cancers and their proliferation. According to its function, HMGB1 shuttles between the cell nucleus and cytoplasm, assisting with nucleosome stabilization and gene transcription, or localizing in the cell membrane for outgrowth. The clinicopathologic and prognostic significance of these different subcellular locations and their correlation has been unclear in colorectal cancer (CRC). We found significantly higher rates of nuclear HMGB1 expression in CRC and colorectal adenoma tissue samples (84.0% and 92.6%, respectively) than in normal colorectal tissue (15.0%) and a significantly higher rate of positive cytoplasmic HMGB1 expression in CRC tissue (25.2%) compared with colorectal adenoma (11.8%) and normal colorectal tissue (0.0%). Positive cytoplasmic HMGB1 expression was associated with high-grade CRC, a poor prognosis, and was negatively correlated with strongly positive nuclear HMGB1 expression in CRC tissue specimens (r = - 0.377, P = 0.000). CRC patients with strongly positive nuclear HMGB1 expression had a better survival prognosis than other CRC patients. Preventing nuclear plasma translocation of HMGB1 may be a new strategy for CRC management.
