Decreased mean platelet volume is associated with microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer: A propensity score-matched analysis.

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
backgroundPatients with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC) generally have a better prognosis and a more effective immune response than patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC. Moreover, activated platelets play a crucial role in modulating innate immune cells. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is an indicator of platelet activation. This study is to examine the association between MPV and MSI status in CRC.
methodsWe collected the clinical and pathological variables of 424 CRC patients diagnosed at the Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital from January 2018 to December 2018. Associations between MPV levels and MSI status were examined. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to reduce the possibility of selection bias.
results424 CRC patients were divided into low-MPV group and high-MPV group according to the optimal cut-off value of MPV. 131 high-MPV patients were matched to low-MPV counterparts in a 1:1 ratio by propensity score matching. As MPV levels increased, the percentage of patients with MSI-H reduced. Furthermore, compared with MSS group, the MSI-H group had a significantly lower MPV levels (p= 0.003 after matching). In addition, logistic regression analysis identified reduced MPV as an independent risk factor for MSI-H in CRC patients after controlling for other potential parameters.
conclusionLower MPV is associated with MSI-H subtype of CRC. Further study on MPV in MSI-H CRC is warranted.
