Slug and CD133 expression are associated with peritoneal carcinomatosis and survival in gastric cancer.

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
backgroundSlug is an activating transcription factor involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and CD133 is a cancer stem cell marker found in various cancers, including gastric cancer (GC). We investigated the relationship between Slug and CD133 and the occurrence of peritoneal carcinomatosis and survival in patients with GC.
methodsThis retrospective study included 196 patients with stage 2 or 3 GC who underwent curative surgery with D2 lymph node dissection and adjuvant chemotherapy between 2001 and 2009. We analyzed the expression of Slug, CD133, ABCG2, E-cadherin, vimentin, NEDD9, and SMAD4 in surgical tissue specimens using immunohistochemical analysis to determine their prognostic value.
resultsAmong the 196 patients, expression of Slug was elevated in 157 tumors (81%) while the expression of CD133 was high in 153 tumors (81%). The expression of Slug and CD133 in combination significantly predicted peritoneal relapse (P=0.002). High Slug and high CD133 expression were significantly associated with poor peritoneal relapse-free survival [hazard ratio (HR), 7.239; P=0.007] and overall survival (HR, 1.682; P=0.027) in multivariate Cox analysis.
conclusionsOur study shows that a high Slug and high CD133 expression status is predictive of peritoneal recurrence in high-risk resected GC patients. They are also a poor prognostic factor for peritoneal relapse-free survival and overall survival.
