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

backgroundMolecular heterogeneity is one of the most important concerns in colorectal cancer (CRC), which results in a wide range of therapy responses and patient prognosis. We aimed to identify the genes with high heterogeneity of expression (HHE) and their relation with prognosis and drug resistance.

methodsTwo cohort studies, the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and the GSE39582, were used to discover oncogenes genes with HHE. The relationship between identified genes with clinical and genomic characteristics was evaluated based on TCGA data. Also, the GDSC and CCLE data were used for drug resistance and sensitivity. Sixty CRC samples were used to validate the obtained data by RT-qPCR.

resultsFindings revealed that 132 genes with HHE were found to be up-regulated in both cohorts and were enriched in pathways such as hypoxia, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Forty-nine of selected genes related to clinical and genomic variables, including stage, common mutations, the tumor site, and microsatellite state that were ignored. The expression level of CXCL1, SFTA2, SELE, and SACS as genes with HHE were predicted survival patients, and RT-qPCR results demonstrated that levels of SELE and SACS had HHE in CRC samples. The expression of many identified genes like BGN, MMP7, COL11A1, FAP, KLK10, and TNFRSE11B was associated with resistance to chemotherapy drugs.

conclusionsSome genes expression, including SELE, SACS, BGN, KLK10, COL11A1, and TNFRSE11B have an oncogenic function with HHE, and their expression can be used as indicators for differing treatment responses and survival rates in CRC.
