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

purposeColorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in males and the second in females worldwide with very poor prognosis. Extracellular matrix proteins like collagens play important roles in cancer progression. Collagen type V α2 (COL5A2) is increased in several cancers but its role in cancer remains unclear.

methodsCOL5A2 expression was evaluated by interrogation of public Oncomine gene microarray datasets and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses of two tissue microarrays containing 180 paired CRC cases. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Cox proportional hazards regression methods. COL5A2 was ectopically expressed in CRC cells, and the cell proliferation was measured using the methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method.

results

conclusionCOL5A2 is a potential prognostic marker of CRC.
