Correlation between expression levels of lncRNA FER1L4 and RB1 in patients with colorectal cancer.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major life-threatening malignancy. Studies demonstrated the lncRNA fer-1 like family member 4 (FER1L4) was downregulated in different cancers and its expression was positively correlated with the retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) mRNA in a competing endogenous RNAs network. We investigated expression levels of FER1L4 and RB1 in patients with colorectal cancer. 50 paired colorectal tumors and non-tumor marginal tissues, 30 paired adenomatous colorectal polyps (ACPs) and matched adjacent normal tissues were obtained from the patients. Total RNA was extracted from the samples and cDNAs were synthesized. Their expression was quantified by qRT-PCR. Correlation between FER1L4 and RB1 expression levels was analyzed by Pearson correlation test. Finally, ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate their biomarker potency. We observed significant downregulation of FER1L4, but upregulation of RB1 in the colorectal tumors compared with non-tumor and the polyp tissues. However, RB1 expression was positively correlated with FER1L4 expression both in the tumor and polyp samples. ROC curve analysis showed both FER1L4 and RB1 expression levels could discriminate tumor from non-tumor and tumor from polyp samples. None of the clinicopathological characteristics of patients were associated with FER1L4 or RB1 expression levels. Despite the downregulation of FER1L4 and upregulation of RB1 in tumors compared with non-tumor tissues, the expression of RB1 was positively correlated with the expression of FER1L4 in the colorectal tumor as well as in the polyp tissues. FER1L4 expression level might be considered as a potential biomarker for colorectal cancer development.
