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

backgroundGastric and esophageal cancers are malignant diseases with rising importance in Western countries. To improve oncologic outcome after surgery, it is essential to understand the relevance of germline mutations. The aim of the study was to identify and distinguish clinically relevant single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). PATIENTS AND

methodsIn total, 190 patients with curative oncological resections of gastric and distal esophageal adenocarcinomas at Heidelberg University Hospital were eligible for this study. Outcome differences were determined for each SNP by analysis of clinical variables, survival, and mRNA expression levels.

resultsSignificant survival differences were found on univariate analysis for usual prognostic variables (such as pTNM) and for six SNPs. On multivariate survival analysis, the SNPs rs12268840 (intron variant of MGMT, p = 0.045) and rs9972882 (intron variant of STARD3 and eQTL of PGAP3, p = 0.030) were independent and significant survival predictors along with R status and pT/pN category. Group TT of rs12268840 had the highest rate of second primary carcinoma (30.4%, p = 0.0003), lowest expression of MGMT based on cis-eQTL analysis in normal gastroesophageal tissue (p = 1.99 × 10

conclusionsTwo intron variant SNPs of MGMT and STARD3 were identified that were significant survival predictors and may influence tumor biology. The data indicate that DNA methylation (MGMT) and malfunction of GPI anchoring (PGAP3) are distinct mechanisms that are relevant for tumor progression and relapse.
