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

backgroundCell division control protein 42 (CDC42) is involved in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression by modulating CD8

methodsCDC42 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction from 250 resectable CRC patients and 50 healthy controls (HCs). CDC42 was divided by quartiles, as well as high and low expressions in CRC patients for correlation and survival analysis.

resultsCDC42 was elevated in CRC patients vs. HCs (p < 0.001), which had a good ability to distinguish CRC patients from HCs with the area under the curve (95% confidence interval) of 0.889 (0.841-0.937). In CRC patients, CDC42 was not associated with demographics or comorbidities (all p > 0.05), while its higher quartile was linked to increased T stage (p < 0.001), N stage (p = 0.009), TNM stage (p < 0.001), abnormal carcinoembryonic antigen (p = 0.043), and adjuvant chemotherapy administration (p = 0.002). Higher CDC42 quartile (p = 0.002) and CDC42 high (vs. low) (p < 0.001) were related to worse disease-free survival (DFS); meanwhile, elevated CDC42 quartile (p = 0.002) and CDC42 high (vs. low) (p = 0.001) were also linked to poor overall survival (OS). Multivariate Cox's regression analysis presented that CDC42 quartile 3 and 4 (vs. quartile 1) independently predicted declined DFS and OS (all p < 0.05).

conclusionCirculating CDC42 relates to higher disease risk, T, N, and TNM stage, abnormal tumor marker, and poor prognosis among CRC patients.
