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

objectiveNeoadjuvant chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil (5FU) is one of the most effective treatment options for gastric cancer patients.  However, treatment response varies significantly between patients based on their genetic profile. The purpose of this study was to determine the association between thymidylate synthase (TS) and enolase superfamily member 1 (ENOSF1) polymorphisms, treatment response, and overall survival in patients with gastric cancer.

methodsThe TS and ENOSF1 variants were analyzed in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue from 100 gastric cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant 5FU-based chemotherapy. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) were used to determine TS polymorphisms' genotypes, and the Tetra Arms PCR method was used to identify ENOSF1 polymorphisms. Patients were followed for up to five years, and the association between variants, treatment response, and overall survival (OS) was examined.

resultsThere was a significant association between the TS 5' UTR polymorphism and response to treatment in patients with gastric cancer who received neoadjuvant 5FU therapy (P=0.032). Patients with the 2R3R genotype responded better to treatment, whereas those with the 3R3R genotype did not respond to treatment. Patients with the 2R2R and 3R3R genotypes had the longest and shortest median survival times, respectively, and the observed differences were significant (p=0.003). There was a statistically significant relationship between rs2612091 and chemotherapy response (P=0.017). Patients with genotype AG did not respond to treatment.

conclusionThis study established that the TS 5' UTR and ENOSF1 rs2612091 polymorphisms could be used to predict treatment response and overall survival in patients with gastric cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on 5FU.
